I can't believe how much weight I've gained...

So, I went to the doctor yesterday for a follow-up, and one of the things you have to do before you see her is get on the scale. I couldn't believe my eyes! It read 146.4 lbs! That's like 20 lbs more than I weighed last month! I knew I gained weight since the surgery two months ago (when I was 126 lbs.), but I didn't realize I had gained that much! It's funny... I've really noticed the effect that gaining weight has had on me. I take naps during the day. I'm constantly tired. I feel listless and bored all the time.

I wish I could start working out, but my surgeon says I can't. Otherwise, my boobs won't heal correctly :( So, I'm pretty sure that the weight will just fly off once I'm able to do more than walk around. But it's still unsettling knowing that I've gained almost a pound every couple days! I meet with my surgeon this Saturday. So, hopefully he'll give me the okay on exercising again :) If not, I'll just have to watch my calorie intake... what else can I do when I can't work out? BTW, does anyone else think gaining a pound every two days is a bit abnormal?
