You gain Water weight in the hospital from all the fluids they pump into you. I promise it will drop off very rapidly. I think I gained 8 lbs while in. GiVe it a week and you will lose that and then some.

It is normal and happens to all of us.

Totally normal. Happened to me. It's the gas, liquids etc.... You will lose it. Fast!

I came home from the hospital 19lbs heavier.....but from reading the posts about it I expected a gain and it took a week to get back to my surgery weight.
