Ugg, i need some advice..

Well i have an appt tom with the nut at NWH, and well i my meds were switched and im ragging it(bloated from period) and im up 1lbs and i'm afraid they are going to pospone my surg. Will NWH(dr .p) post a surg for just 1lbs?

Are you up one lb since your consult or have you lost since your consult?  I don't think they'll postpone for 1 lb.  I think they say that to scare people so they don't gain, but everyone fluctuates a few pounds all the time.  I think you'll be fine, but I know what you're feeling.  I was so worried about it too when I was still going through that phase.  Good luck at your appointment. 

Take Care, Kendra

I'd just let them know you have your period and that explains the weight gain... when I have mine I go up 3-5 lbs. .. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Hi, I lost weight at the first nut apt, than the next two apt I was up 8 pounds total and still had my surgery, they just said the weight loss is for your benefit it makes recovery and the surgery a little easier, but they will not cancel.                           Shannon

I just asked my nutritionist about this at my last support group meeting. She said that the only reason the surgery will be postponed is if your weight just before surgery is higher than your initial weight at your first visit. She said they realize weight can fluctuate so they only look for some pre-op weight loss. Hope this makes you feel better - maybe you can ask your nutritionist if it's the same way in their practice.

How did your appointment go with the nutritionist?  Did she say anything about your weight being up 1 lb? Kendra

It went good. i was down 1lbs from last time i was there but i was bloated and yucky. and on new meds for depression.
