Breaking down... Not a pound lost

I gained 10 lbs in the hospital. So week one I lost those 10 plus 2 real ones. It sucks but my second week was awesome

Stop weighing yourself everyday. Take the scale out of your house because it will drive you crazy.

I'm three days out and the next time I will be weighed will be at my two week post op appointment. I'm just going to keep doing all the things I was told, hard as that is, getting enough fluids and Protein is a real challenge

Albertamom- take a deep breath, follow your liquid diet & stay off the scale for a week or so. Remember, you were hooked up to an IV, you stated you were on your period & you're body is recovering from surgery. Everything will be ok! My thoughts & prayers are with you. You WILL start seeing the numbers drop, give it time

Water in...water out. Try to get in as much Fluid as possible to help flush that hidden water out. It's a matter of shifting the water (IV fluids) from your tissues to your circulatory system. Keeping well-hydrated will do that. Keep drinking!

My surgery date was 25 Feb. I weigh exactly the same as I did the day I got home (205). Lost 10 lbs pre-op. Reading these posts has made me feel better. I was weighing each morning and evening. The scale is going away for a while for sure!

Ditto this. Very important to keep putting in as much water as you can stand past your 64oz. It's been my personal experience even before the surgery that simply drinking enough can be the key to losing or not. Your body is inflamed and bloated in a few places from the surgery and then the period. Water water water. Drink it.
