    I am a week and a day- 25th

    Preop I was 307

    After surgery I was 319!!!!!

    Now I am 303.6

    It SEEMS like alot--- but really it's just all that bloat/gas from surgery so I'm actually disappointed its less than 5

    I expected at least 10-15 of actual FAT!!!

    I still haven't slept in bed but one night and I'm still sore etc

    I was 26th as well. I'm down 16 since surgery. Your body may be holding on to all those liquids they pumped into you in the hospital.

    Remember one gallon weighs about 8lbs. Each iv bag is aprox .21 gallons or 785cc. If you got two iv bags that's almost half a gallon or 4lbs of water alone. More if you got more iv bags. :-)
