Dropped Big Post Op, Gained 6 Back And Now No Change - All In 3 Weeks

So I lost like 25 lbs in the first 10 days post op, which was great! Then in the next week, I managed to gain 6 lbs back and have lost nothing since. I am now 3 weeks out and no change in over a week... since I gained. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but I'm trying to be careful about the calories, sodium, fat, etc while keeping my water and protein intakes up. I've been walking between 1 and 3 miles a day. Has anyone else gone through this too? What am I doing wrong? I'm so frustrated and starting to get depressed, which is certainly not going to help :(

I am. I am following the diet religiously and walking the same distance as you and the scale keeps going up. I keep hearing it's water retention, muscle building, weight distributing etc but it's not comforting. I can tell in my clothes that I'm losing though. I was sleeved in 4/2 and have lost 22lbs but it said I gained 4 back. It makes me sad.

Just keep doing everything right and your body will catch up!!!

Try not to get frustrated.. If weighing everyday gets to you don't do it.

There is no way you could have gained real weight.. Your body is just figuring it all out.

Hang in there!!

Dont weigh yourself daily- weekly at most.

I was hopping right out of bed every morning and jumping on that scale to record my victories and the day I gained .5lbs I was SO SAD!!!! I pouted for a few minutes and then decided to limit my scale interactions to once a week and only at the qym or at home for a special victory photo op (like onderland) :)

Keep workin that sleeve and be dillagent about getting all your Protein and Water in first. You can do this!
