Hello, I am 12 days post-op (open surgery), and have only lost 2 kilos (4.4 lbs). My metabolism sucks.

Has anyone ever done worse than that?

You're normal. During your hospital stay they probably pumped you full of fluids and junk, I know I came home from the hospital nearly 20 lbs heaver than I left and it took a couple weeks for that to work out of my system.

You'll lose it, don't worry, give your body time to adjust.

I just came home from the hospital and had gained 21lbs in 2 days. I feel like a big juicy swollen grape lol. Just take care and keep on moving.

Thanks girls... xox

It will work for u, trust it!

Thanks ElleG, it's just frustrating. The last couple of days, a little bit has crept back on.

Your still healing and bloated and gassy. Give it time stay off the scale for a few days. Work on sipping and walking the gas out. Trust it, u will loose. Seeing the changes my body is making amazes me. Ur gonna feel this way soon. I'm just 5 months post op.

The scale is a liar these first few weeks. Don't trust it or be discouraged by it. Work on your nutrition goals which are very important for healing.
