I had the sleeve done on 1/23/18 and I weighed myself and it showed I had lost 50 pounds total. Pre and post op. I used multiple different scales and they all said the same.

But I weighed myself today and it showed me gaining 20 pounds

How do you gain 20 pounds in a matter of a few days?

I used multiple scales again and they all said the same.

I feel so devastated.

You are right - that is a HUGE fluctuation.

I weigh daily. It is the trend over time that matters, and I know (and reasearch shows this is generally true) weighing daily is associated with me keeping eating on track.

I must say, the 50lb drop since 23 Jan seems extreme - maybe you shed a huge amount of water and have it back? 30lbs in 10days is amazing!

50 pounds was post and pre op. I lost 20 according to the post op scale, and miraculously gained it all back in a matter of days... I’m not sure I could count 20 pounds as all water weight

Hard to understand - but you’d have to eat 1000s of calories for it to be fat!

How are your clothes feeling?

I dropped 2 shirt sizes,
And probably a pant size

Fantastic. Some folk here talk about “non-scale-victories” -NSVs - I reckon this is the best sign things are going well! Congrats.
