skylily 7 Posted August 29, 2013 Hello, I am 12 days post-op (open surgery), and have only lost 2 kilos (4.4 lbs). My metabolism sucks. Has anyone ever done worse than that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sparklette 381 Posted August 29, 2013 You're normal. During your hospital stay they probably pumped you full of fluids and junk, I know I came home from the hospital nearly 20 lbs heaver than I left and it took a couple weeks for that to work out of my system. You'll lose it, don't worry, give your body time to adjust. 3 skylily, BBdoodle and ElleG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bloreorbust 286 Posted August 29, 2013 I just came home from the hospital and had gained 21lbs in 2 days. I feel like a big juicy swollen grape lol. Just take care and keep on moving. 2 skylily and BBdoodle reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ElleG 394 Posted August 29, 2013 Your still healing and bloated and gassy. Give it time stay off the scale for a few days. Work on sipping and walking the gas out. Trust it, u will loose. Seeing the changes my body is making amazes me. Ur gonna feel this way soon. I'm just 5 months post op. 1 skylily reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bloreorbust 286 Posted August 29, 2013 The scale is a liar these first few weeks. Don't trust it or be discouraged by it. Work on your nutrition goals which are very important for healing. 1 skylily reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
