Period Fluid Rentention and Weight Gain

Leather_N_Lace

Has nothing on the fluid retention post op. After having all my girly bits removed and not having anything to eat except clear liquids for 24 hours I am up 4 pounds.

So what is the point of the post.... You dont just retain water during your period silly rabbits. And obviously starving yourself won't make you lose weight either. So buck up. Take some ibuprofen or prescribed pain relief, eat your wheaties and go exercise:)

I'm not making light of any medical issues as I have dealt with my own. What I am saying is, don't allow yourself to backslide. i understand pain. i understand the retaining of fluids. I dont understand letting it control you. These next 6-12 weeks cant go by fast enough so i can back to lifting. But for now, i am all hospital gowned up and walking the hallways:)
