I had Fibroid tumors that I had removed through a myomectomy proceedure three weeks ago. I am on weight watchers which has worked fine up until a week ago. I can't seem to lose one ounce, let alone a pound in the past week.
I need to know does surgery affect weight loss and can someone recommend what i shouldn't eat right now.
I had an endometrial ablation done in the beginning of Feb and am having an awful time losing too, I dont see how it can still be effecting me 7 weeks later, but I sure would like to know if that is part of it!

its so frustrating isn't it?! I feel like if I eat any less im going to starve myself. I'm thinking of doing the Kemetic diet for a few weeks
I ended up going up on my calories afterwards, still didnt gain or lose, not I am at a point where I am going to go back down a bit and see if that helps. And I am ramping up my exercise. And if that doesnt work? I am going to go check myself into the funny farm and start saying goonie goo goo to everyone. (just kidding lol)
I had a abdominal hysterectomy, gained thirty pounds and was totally frustrated about it, but the weight would not budge. It did take a while, but eventually, it dropped off. I think when you are healing, your body hangs on to the extra weight 'just in case'. Please don't starve yourself or go to extremes...just give it time. Eat sensibly, and exercise, and you will eventually see results.
Even something small? I had a novasure where they burn the entire lining of the uterus, its not as invasive as a hysterectomy but still leaves me unable to have any more children. I still wouldnt think it would still be healing, I mean I felt ok within a week.
thank you everyone for your input. I am beginning to see what all of you are saying is true. I have a tendency to get inflammation, plus im in PMS, but I finally figured out what was wrong. Due to post-opt depression, being that I suffer wih depression and anxiety, I was eating way over my points because of it. Once I sat down and really started to look at what I was eating, I realized I was doing a lot of nervous eating and not drinking enough fluids, but now im back on track and four lbs have come off, so im happy about that.
