Ok, at my highest I was 362. The day I left for TJ after all my preop diet I was 348. Now, 3-5 days post op I weight 356. Someone tell me it's swelling because I am not eating/drinking too much. 600 cals per day compared to 5000 before my preop diet.

It's all Fluid from the IV's from surgery. Your body has just been thru a major surgery, it just needs time. Keep drinking Water and Protein, it will ok.

Good Luck!

It is most likely a combination of the fluids, and your body adjusting to the change, your body is most likely trying to retain fluid while it adjusts which will cause this kind of thing to happen, after a few days it should start dropping. Good Luck.

It is totally normal. They pump you full of fluids and air during surgery, plus swelling and recovery from a major operation. I actually gained 10lbs after my surgery and a week later still weighed more than when I left for surgery. Into the second and third week I lost 17lbs, so just hang in there!

I gained 10lbs the day after surgery. I was back to my pre op weight by the next week. It's normal don't get discouraged

Thank you! I was hoping that was the case! I'm not hungry and with a liquid 600 cal diet I was like WHAT? Lol

Thank you again!
