Still bloated

I'm only 3 days post op. I know it's normal to go home from the hospital heavier because of all the iv fluids I received in the hospital. Im up 7 lbs and just wonder how long it takes to show a loss.

    Everyone is different. Just try and drink enough fluids and walk as much as you are able to handle. Everyone heals differently.

    I just had my sleeve done on Friday and I'm up about 5lbs despite consuming under 300calories a day since Thursday. My nutritionist said it could take up to a week for your 'true weight' to show on the scale because of all the fluids and gas they put into you. :) Hang in there!
