Banded on Tuesday

[luvracing 0]

hello fellow bandsters:

I had a very uneventful experience. Of course I've got some pain and some gas, but not horrible. I was bummed this morning though when I got on the scales, it shows that I've gained two pounds since the surgery.

What is up the that????? I would think that is scientifically impossible. I'm eating exactly what the dr. ordered. Hopefully my body will get the message soon that it is supposed to lose weight and not gain weight!!!!

Terri - I gained 8 pounds when I had surgery, they teased me about coming in for surgery and they were putting weight on me!

It is from the IV's etc. so don't worry, in a few days it will be gone!

Welcome to bandland!

Congratulations and hang in there! I'm sure it is just Fluid from the IVs and some tissue swelling, too. I wish you the best, Cindy

Congrats Terri! Don't fret, you will wake up one morning and Pee forEVER! and lose all that Fluid. You will see the scales move in the right direction, don't worry!

Welcome to Bandland!! So glad it all went smoothly.

I gained five pounds right after my surgery then it just fell right back off after I came home. I agree with what Iluvharley's said, it's from the IV. They pump you full of Fluid with that. It will take care of itself in no time.

Congrats!!!!!

I weighed when I checked in this morning and then I weighed on my scale at home to check it for my journal - I gained 5 pounds today in surgery.

Geese this little silicone band is a heavy little booger! :cheeky
