kasumi 37 Posted November 21, 2014 My Dr's office actually said not to get on the scale until the post op visit because my body will be filled with excess has and liquids, so don't freak out. Apparently it's completely normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SuperDave 1,115 Posted November 21, 2014 What they said ^ ! Don't worry about it. Your body will adjust and you will lose. Just do what you are supposed to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fairytale1379 2 Posted November 21, 2014 Sailing in same boat! I am in week 3. Post opp week 1 and 2 I lost about 10kgs. Beginning of week 3 I put on 3kg. When I spoke to my surgeon, he said may be it is because of the Water retention (due to menstruation which was due for week 3). After that my weight is stalled.

purplelite 5 Posted November 21, 2014 You are not eating so you are not really gaining fat probably just water! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Camarolegend 185 Posted November 22, 2014 I agree with several posters. Don't worry about it and keep doing what you are supposed to. It is probably all liquid weight. I bet there is a major weight drop in your near future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
