What did I do wrong? everything was going good and now I have gained 4 lbs 3 since monday is it because I did not exercise last week? or because I have been eatting SF fudge bars. One a day? Help, I don't want to gain it again. I am thinking I am eatting too much. Yesterday I ate, 1/2cup milk with protien with bannana Breakfast. Scramble eggs with Ham only ate about 1/3 of it 1/2cup milk with protein Lunch; 2 thin slice's of deli turkey and ham one each 3/4 of a string cheese low fat one apple sauce no sugar added Dinner; mabe 1/2 oz of left over chicken thigh 3 bits of veggies 1/8 cup sweet tater 1/2 cup milk with protien one sf ice cream bar am I eatting too much?

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!

Dear Janet: I don't think that you are eating too much. Weight fluctuations are normal throughout the month. It may be water weight and will be gone again in no time. Your food looks appropriate to me, but I am not a nutritionist.

Hang in there and try not to panic....I know that it can be shocking, but it is normal.

Tell someone that you love them!

Hi Janet, Don't panic....your body may be adjusting and or you may be holding water. Try adding a cup of warm water with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and splenda to your diet. Call your surgeons office and set up an appointment right away with the nut. Don't sit and get so upset . You will give up and start eating all the wrong things. It appears you may need to increase your protein and yes workout!!! But, work with those that know you best (surgeon and nut) and it will all work out

Oh, and be sure and take your measurements and find out your body fat comp. There are times when the scale is NOT your friend, but you may still be losing in inches and body fat. I had 9 weeks where I did not lose one stinkin pound. I just kept eating and working out and it finally kicked in again. Take care, Kathy

Thanks Kathy, I will try the lemon juice and see if that works too. I did do my measurements every month and I have been losing inches. I just go upset when in two days I gained 3 lbs.that just set me off, I will keep eatting the right foods and working out. and I will up my protien and maybe it will get going again. thanks .

Janet We had our surgeries about the same time and I am doing exactly what you're doing!!!! Just came out of that rut this week! I kept the 3or 4 pounds up and down for a couple weeks.......but to my surprise I went down a size in pants......so forget about that scale worry about your health and inches! I do believe that scale was invented by the devil! You have done GREAT so far! Don't worry! Pam

Thank you Pam, You are doing great too, I am not going to look at the scale for two weeks and then see what happens. I know I have lost inches because I can fit into jeans that I could not one month ago. so something has to be working.
