weight regain....help!!!
Have not posted on this site in a very long time, thought I would see if anyone has any ideas....
Im 4:5 years post op....weight goes up, up, up and I don't eat very much. Everything I put in my mouth is causing bloating, and fluid retention.......dairy, carbs, vegetables, protein,water. I drink a minimum of 80 oz of water and 24 oz of decaf coffee. Bloodwork always comes back normal. Im so uncomfortable, when I call surgeon or primary doctor, the response is go to a nutritionist or try more medications. Im so frustrated, thinking about new doctors. My abdomen, hands feet legs are swollen and I feel like I can't breath. I do have thyroid issues but bloodwork is normal and I take fluid pills........
I would like some input.....has anyone ever had these issues??
Thanks!
