Scale Bounce

I swear I have not cheated, at all.  You know I have confessed before and would do it again if I cheated.  I weighed this morning and the scale bounced 2 lbs higher than I was.  This is serious.  I was told I would need to cancel my pre-op appt if I did not weigh 309.   I know you all must be sick of hearing all my drama.  It just seems it is one thing after another right now.   What should I do? I don't want to make Julia or Dr. B mad but I don't want to cancel.   I do usually swell the week before Aunt Flo comes to visit, which would be next week.  But that seems too soon to swell.  And my rings are not really tight this morning so I'm not sure it is water.  I'm going to leave the house and run errands and get my mind off it.  I'm going to drink a ton of water in case it is water weight gain.  Anyone have any home remedies for getting a couple of lbs off quick? 

Lemon juice or Apple cider vinegar also asparagus are all diuretics! Drink lots of water with fresh lemon in it....dirink a few table spoons of the vinegar. NO salt today! NONE! Relax too...sometimes being stressed will cause every function to tighten up....Relax, drink...drink..relax

I wonder if my body could be reacting to my cold/sinus infection whatever it is.  Maybe the stress of being sick has my body holding on to water or fat.  I don't know but it has got to come right back off.

I wish I could help you with the remedies.  Would you be able to switch to all liquids for a day or so?  I don't know if that helps a great deal, but one day of liquids pre op let me drop 3 lbs.  ???  Maybe it would be worth a shot.  I know you'll figure it out - you'll make that goal and be able to have your surgery!!!   Robyn

I'm thinking liquids too.  I have only had 120 calories so far today and planning on drinking afternoon shake and evening shake.

Amy, I'm sure it's just some water or *other* weight that's temporary!

Is everything moving along regularly? If not, try some Miralax ... or Rita's raw and whole unsalted almonds. Wow, now those set me FREE! : 0 I know, TMI, but honestly if anyone is having problems in that arena, those unsalted, whole and natural almonds will move things along! ; )

Things have been moving right along but I'm wondering if I should help more to move along! LOL!  I just love that smiley face icon!  he he!!  I have some miralax that Anna told me to get a while back.  I might try some today and tomorrow just for extra assurance. 

Don't freak and don't cancel!  I find that my home scales are haevier than those at Weight Wise.  You still have moer than a week before surgery.  I would suspect that your sinus infection might be the culprit.  I am sure your sinues are inflamed and holding onto a little more fluid than normal.  If youare truly worried go up to Weight Wise and ask at the nurses desk to weigh.  They will be very helpful.  That way you will know what their scales read.

I wish I lived closer to weight wise and I would stop by there on my way to work to check out the scales.  I live and work too far away so that is not an option.  

Just do liquids and I'm promise that will get those lb's off!  I know that sucks but it will be so worth it! Hang in there gal!  You'll get there!
