fuzzyangelbear 15 Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) Yes, leave it to me. I loose 11 lbs on the pre surgery diet. Go in the hospital weighing 301.2 and come home and the next morning I weigh 304.0 - how in the world is that humanly possible. Talk about making someone feel down ????

sunnkistme 76 Posted December 25, 2014 Not unusual to gain up to 10 pounds since they pump you full of IV fluids. It will be gone soon enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomi71 581 Posted December 25, 2014 I gained 6 pounds right after surgery. By weeks end I was down 10. Its Fluid retention, etc. Not uncommon. How are you now? ( I see your original post was several months ago) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fuzzyangelbear 15 Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) @@tomi71 I just posted this. My surgery date was Dec 22. Imagine the surprise when my fiancé had told me my weight when they measured in the hospital bed, I thought he was kidding. Low and behold I had gained when I checked when I got home and then thought I was dreaming so checked again this morning. I was so disappointed.

Miss Mac 6,262 Posted December 25, 2014 I gained 8 pounds in the hospital, but it got peed off in a few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finediva 979 Posted December 25, 2014 So, on the day of surgery they weighed me in at 226 lbs. Went home the next day at 238lbs. Took me 9 days to lose it. Went to the doctor on the 11th day and weighed in at 222 lbs. I was told to consume 1ozs of Clear Liquids every 15mins. I had to do that until I saw her on day 11. My surgeon had the nerve to be visibly disappointed in my numbers. Really?! SMH still. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
