absolutely not. your body may still be pumped up with fluids and is also still recovering. I gained weight in the first week. no worries.

Dont be worried. I gained 12lbs from hospital and lost 8 the 5 days i was there. Im losing weight quick but just no u can gain quit a bit from all the fluids and gas they give u. Just wait ull be on the losers bench soon

Nothing at all to worry about. People's bodies react very differently after surgery. The important thing to focus on at this stage is post-op recovery, taking care of your healing tummy. Do everything right and the weight loss will follow in time.

I gained 12 pounds in the hospital. It comes off in the first few weeks.
