Very common after surgery. You need to really get your water in right now. Fluid in---fluid out.
Topic: RE: I am so bummed! (Protein)
My surgeon does not believe in protien shakes at all. He wants all the protien to come from food. He has a high success rate. Sorry All I can offer is well wishes.

Topic: I gained 11.5 pounds!!!
I am soooooo bummed out!!! I had surgery last Tuesday and gained 11.5 pounds from it! I can't get it off for the life of me! I know it's all the fluids they gave me and probably the infection that came later, but I am going crazy! Anyone witness this too? Thanks!

protein shakes 
I did not like ANY of them after surgery.
However I have since found one I love! It's less than 3 oz's, comes in fruity flavors, no bad aftertaste, not thick, in fact good. All this and 25 g's of protein!
You can check it out via my www. button if you like!
This is great for when I know I've not gotten my protein in from food and can sip, sip and do it at bedtime and keep my metabolism running through the night!

Congrats on your WOW moment!
My latest was the other night after my sister-in-law left my house I said to my husband "Didn't she look great in her new outfit?" (She's been having some medical problems and it was great to see her out and about.) And my hubby said yeah she did but you look even better than her! I said "Well she weighs less than me because I know she weighs around 190." Then I thought Hey wait a minute...she doesn't weigh less than me! I weigh less than her! I only weigh 185 now! I'm so used to just always being heavier than everyone I know. It defintely like WOW, I am getting smaller than other people!

Topic: New pic!
Wow I didn't even recognize myself. 
Do y'all see any difference?
I've also placed the new photo's on my profile.
Now I guess when I say I'm down -94 since surgery and -124 total, people will believe me
hugs and prayers,
Vickie

Topic: RE: A WOW moment
That is such an excellent story!!!! I too look forward to my wow moment being a great big goodbye to Lane Bryant... Though I am greatful they were the leaders in developing clothing that didn't look frumpy for larger women... (took them a little while to get on board with getting plus size models - but ah well...)
Much congratulations to you

Topic: RE: Water Loading at six months
Thank you Alice!! I am rarely hungry anyhow right now, but I may try this if I start feeling hungrier!!! I drink quite a bit of water anyhow, usually about 100 ounces per day!! I have a bottle of water from the time I wake up until I go to bed!! All day and all evening!!! I only eat 3 meals per day and try not to snack at all in between and it sure seems to help me....Maybe its the water that is keeping me from being hungrier!!!
Thanks for the info!!
