Hi all. Please tell me that it is normal to experience post-op weight gain! After being pumped full of liquids before I was sent home plus swelling in the abdomen I am 10 lbs up. I am getting in my required liquids daily and also am walking, usually each time I take a dose of my medicine. Thanks for any tips/thoughts, etc!

Yes. I gained 10 pounds post op from IV fluids too!

Oh good (okay not that any weight gain is good). I was hoping this wasn't just me. My husband was sleeved last year and I didn't recall him gaining post op weight. I'm assuming at some point it will go back down. I started to think I was perhaps the one crazy person that the sleeve would not work on! Thank you!

Yes, this is normal. They pump you so full of liquids. It will all go away...and then some! Stop worrying! good luck!

Yep happened to me and the surgeon even warned me it would...
