weigh more after surgery then before



Recommended Posts

I'm trying to figure this out. I lost 7 pounds pre op then when I came home a day later I gained 9 lbs. Is this normal. is it from all the saline they gave me ? I checked my weight again and its still up the 9 lbs. What do you think?

You are correct. My MD said not to even think of weighing myself for one week!

Totally normal for many people. I waited 2 weeks to get on the scale after surgery. I KNEW I had gained in the hospital just by the way my top fit.

Yep The fluids they give you take a while to get rid of...just temporary.

TOTALLY normal. Fagetabout the scale for a while. Focus on liquids, activity and Protein. The scale will take care of itself. PS, like your polish color.
