Help Gaining Weight Back

I recall when I had my resection my belly became as flat as a pancake. It took a while for me to regain weight but it did come back and I've been holding my own but recently been having bowel problems and lost 5 lbs. I have to go for another resection at the advice of my doctor.
Note, first your body is using all it's excess calories and energy to help you heal from your surgery. After it gets enough repair material, it will direct the excess to your weight so don't worry, the weight will come.

You can try the 100 calorie snack plan. Basically if you try to eat a 100 calorie snack every few hours, it isn't enough to curb your appetite when meal time rolls around but if you sneak in 5 or 6 snacks a day, you have added a whole meals worth of calories. a 100 calorie snack is only 1oz of cheese, 1 hard boiled egg, 1Tb of Peanut butter, a few crackers, a banana, 1/2 c of pudding (I'm going from memory cause my book is upstairs and I'm lazy right now) but you get the idea. It doesn't take much and really if you eat breakfast at 8, a banana at 10, you can still eat lunch at 12, and then have another snack at 2 then something at 4 and then dinner at 6..... over the course of a week it adds up.

But as the other poster said, your body is healing and it takes calories to do that, so give it time.

i lost a LOT of weight last year from a bad flare- if you can tolerate milk or take lactaid drink a baskin robbins milkshake every day- the calorie count is absolutly insane.
