My pants are tight

Ok, I am hoping its because of one or all of the following: 1.  I didn't get my birth control on time and it caused moodiness and bloating which has happened before 2.  I haven't been "regular" if you know what I mean...  maybe i'm just full of doody 3.  I'm swollen from my plastic surgery, yeah right, but it was worth a try! lol 4.  I SHRANK all my jeans in the dryer (a girl can dream) I hope its not one or any of the following: 1.  Pregnant (well ya gotta list it as a possibility) 2.  I'm eating too much 3.  I'm not exercising Tim says I have been eating more because i keep hearing people fussing at me to gain weight.  Well I don't know about that, but I know my pants are tight and I feel big.  I've gained 3 lbs.  What's up with that?  OK I am going to lose this 3 lbs.  I miss my 118.

Hope it's just the pill factor and everything goes back to normal for you.

I'm sorry.  Hope you get down to where you want to be.  Pregnant??? Hmmmmm................. Marilyn

If it is #1 on the first list then #1 on the 2nd list is a GOOD possibility.

Melinda ~ let's see... we'll hope for # 2 on the first list and #3 on the second. Maybe a couple bites of an oatmeal raisin cookie and a few good walks will kiss that miserable 3 pounds good-bye!   Good luck in getting back to your 118! Wishing you the best... ~ Tara

Thought I would give an update on my pants.  They are still too tight.  LOL. But my tummy feels funny...  I have been very active moving stuff around in the office, and stuff at home too...  and my tummy feels very tight, numb and tingly, just as it did when I was swollen after plastic surgery.  I think that it might be swelling, even though I'm at 6 mos postop.  I hear that it can happen all the way up to 1 yr, but haven't had it in some time.  About a month ago, I walked on the treadmill too fast, and it made my tummy feel tight and tingly. 

Hey maybe that is it!!  You are so good about staying on track, so if it is swelling there may be some water weight too, because the two go hand in hand!!!  You will get rid of the three pounds soon!!  I know you will, I have faith in you!! Shelia

Hey Mel, remember my pm to you about the weight gain. I haven't been regular lately, and I swell up real bad in the evenings, I'm 10 months out of having my tummy tuck. You said it was probably from the surgery, water fluids, or irregularity. I just know that I have been getting in more water, back to liquid diet, and I still gained 20 lbs.  I want back to my 120 or 115 lbs stage not 140.  All my jeans are so tight in the evenings, I can wear my size 6 stretch jeans in the morning but can't fasten them at night. I put on a pair of size 10's tonight and they were cutting me into, I was so swollen.  I'm going back to the binder tomorrow and take some water pills and a laxative. I've even been drinking a lot of hot tea, hot apple cider, I did find drinking a hot Vernors ginger ale help settle my tummy when I feel queasy.   You'll lose the pounds.  I haven't been able to work out much, but now that the weather is getting semi nicer, I plan on getting back to walking more, that helps get me regulated better.   Let us know what is the problem so I can get it off me too.  Love

Mine are too. But I think mine is just 'cause I have a size 48 butt stuffed in size 46 jeans!!  Hehehehe!!!

Melinda I hope that you are feeling better soon.  I really likethe #4, sounds like a possibilty to me.
