I was sleeved on 2/14. I found it interesting that they did not wake me before surgery luckily I weighed myself before going to the hospital and weighed in at 250 however when I was discharged yesterday I weighed myself at the hospital and wait in that 256. Is that normal? Did anyone else experience weight gain? When did you start to notice weight loss?

  • Yes, that is normal. You are retaining fluids. I know I had several bags of IV fluids. It's normal for the body to do so it wouldn't starve. You will start to loss in a short while.

    Yup, it's normal. I was done last week and right after surgery was up 4 pounds. Happy to say I'm down 14 now. It will go quick, just walk , and get your sips and Protein in. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing. I've been walking while awake and trying to get the fluids in. Each day seems to be easier than the day before.
