I was sleeved on 4/11/16 so I might be jumping the gun. I am now 13 days post surgery. The first week I lost 13lbs. And Then on day 9 l woke up and the scale said I had gained 4 lbs. This was the same time that I was finally able to get down my 64 ozs of Water and my 60 grams of protien. This week I feel great and have been active walking and bike riding. I've stuck to my liquid diet and made sure not to drink my calories. I've been a model patient and im confused. Does anyone have a similar experience or any insite to offer. Im beyond confused. I have my 2 week appt Monday and am nervous my doctor will think I've cheated.

Yes - it's the dreaded stall. Search Embrace the Stall...it happens around this time (for the 1st time anyway). Keep doing what you're doing - ignore the scale!

Such fluctuations are completely normal...

Daily weighing will almost certainly do your head in...

It's virtually impossible to gain REAL weight on what your eating 9 days post surgery...

Don't forget that your body is likely still traumatized and therefore still in recovery mode...

Your 'gain' could be any number of things, most likely Fluid...

I'm sure your doc will put your mind at ease to some degree....

To me, it seems like you're all over this...

Keep up the great work!!!

Try limiting how much you weight yourself. Just follow your guidelines and rules, keep track of your cals and Fluid intake and wait a week to ten days and weight yourself again. You should be fine.
