I will be having surgery soon and am now terrified that I will uncontrollably gain weight...I have read several personal accounts from those who had surgery and they could not stop from gaining weight from diet or exercise...it just keep piling on! Please say it isn't so!

Hi,
I had my surgery in December all is well but gained 5 pounds in just the overnight stay at the hospital. I had already gained while waiting to have surgery. I have always been thin so very distresssd so went on diet as soon as I could. Sadly at that point nothing traditional worked. So to end on a happy note when I cut all sugar and carbs other than what I have to have since I am on a natural high calcium diet (mostly dairy) I have now lost 10 pounds in about six weeks. It has been slow but steady and I can't exercise like I want due to heel spurs that won't heal. So... there is hope you can get back what you had.
