    if you're on a liquid diet, that gain wasn't a real gain. Probably Water retention from the IV.

    Yes, tomorrow I finally get to eat soft foods but with my weight gain I got worried. He actually wanted me to go on a liquid diet for another week since I was Dehydrated and was vomiting But he said if I felt better I could eat soft foods

    Did your doctor tell you to remain on liquid diet for so long? Three weeks seems like a lot. They had me eating soft/pureed foods starting day 1 after surgery.

    I had IV fluids and just by looking at my swollen feet I could tell that it was Water retention. Do yourself a favour and stay away from the scales for now.

    I just had my sleeve on Wednesday and I'm also experiencing pain in my shoulders and back. I was also told it was gas so I've been taking gas-x and walking. Seems to help.

    The gas rises & you get the pain in your shoulders. Besides walking & gasX, you can also try matching on the spot (or while sitting (lift your knees as high as you can) & lifting your arms up & down over your head. Heat packs can help too.

    It's irritation of the phrenic nerve because of the carbon dioxide gas we pump in to expand the abdomen so as to visualise the stomach while operating. The gas gets trapped against the diaphragm and causes pain in the shoulder tip. Most cases resolve within a couple of days, but I suffered with it for 3 weeks. But it does get better as the gas is gradually absorbed, simple analgesia is best.

    It’s most likely gas from the bypass surgery. My wife had same thing it subsides in few days. But to be sure you might call your providers office and just ask.
