They pumped your body full of fluids for the surgery and during recovery. I gained 30lbs of fluids during my hospitalization.

Don't panic, it's normal. Just keep on track with your Fluid intake!

YES!!! Don't worry. They blow you up like a balloon with air and your body swells up on the inside too. Your body is going through shock. I had the same issue. Then I lost 30 lbs and then I lost nothing for 2.5 weeks again. Just follow the rules and forget about the scale. In fact, I'm thinking of throwing mine off the roof!
