Regain weight

I had a regain of 12 pounds within a one month period. It has totally freaked me out. I all popped on after a 5-day vacation where I was not getting enough protein. Also, I came off of chemo at that time too. Since then, I've tried protein induction, exercise, etc. Nothing is helping. I want to get back down to where I was, because I looked and felt better. I don't want to gain any more. Any help or support?

Can you join us this evening at the Dennys on Wayne Rd by Westland? We are meeting at 7 pm, we being the Westside Losers. I don't have an answer, but others might.

Tell me more about the group. I'm looking for a support group in the area. What are the dates and times for meetings?

Gavriella, What surgery did you have? Did you have lapband? The only thing in your profile is " Planning a Revision". Did you have a revision? Or are you waiting for surgery and gained loss weight? I also see this is your first post. The only thing I can tell you is to go back to basic's PROTEIN , WATER and VITAMINS. Also rev up your exercise. Vacations are a sure bet to put on a few pounds and so are the Holidays. I am sure you will get more information from others here. Take care, Janice

I had Micropouch surgery from Cori Center.

What Jane and Jan said. Remember that women can have weight fluctuations like crazy. Try going back to the way you ate when you were fresh out for a month. kp

Chemo alone can put weight on you like steroids do. You need to give yourself time to get the chemo out of your system before you freak. Drink lots of water to flush out your system, juices and herbal teas help too. You should talk to a nutritionist about a chemo diet also. You have a different situation than most of us here. Try to wait and give your body time to get through the drugs and chemical damage. Wendy
