Weight gain 12 days post op?!

I'm a little discouraged. I'm currently 14 days post op. I have had no issues and other than fatigue, I feel great. The weight has been falling off every day and all of the sudden on day 10 it just stops. I'm thinking ok no problem it's just a stall. It'll be over before I know it. Two days later I step on the scales and was shocked to see that it had suddenly went up 2.5lbs!! Obviously I'm still on liquids, calorie intake 400-500, since surgery I've lost 11lbs. & I was a lower bmi patient. Still how is this even possible?!

Me too. I gained 2 lbs around 10 days out. I'm just over 2 weeks now and it's still there. I took measurements today, so I'm gonna keep an eye on that. I'm following my post op plan and walking daily.
