Help, please! I was sleeved yesterday and I weighed myself on My scale and weighed 242.6. I get home today and weigh myself with the same cloves and on the same location and it's showing I weigh 246!!! I haven't consume no more than 600 calories combined these past 2 days. What is going on here? Has this happened to anyone?

Its Water weight (from fluids in the hospital)..it will go away. I dont reccommend weighing urself now...u will only get discouraged. Ignore the scale for now and focus on mastering ur new eating habits, the weight will come off:)

I was sleeved Monday and I also gained weight. I gained 4 lbs and have only lost 4 ounces.

I was exactly the same weight 4 days after surgery (the day I got home) as the morning of surgery. I'm sure if I weighed myself the next day I would have been heavier. It's because of all the fluids they pump into the IV. It's normal don't worry

Great idea but I'm too anxious right now. I want to jump on the scale every time I use the bathroom lol. I know it will wear off eventually and I'll stop the obsession.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
