Pre and post opp I lose weight like a ladder. Lose 4 lbs. gain 1 back, lose 2 lbs. stall lose 1 lb. gain 2 back, etc. I look at long term trends instead of my daily weight. Water retention or constipation could result in a small gain like that.

It's just normal water and weight daily fluctations probably. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

what is your total weight loss since surgery?

I gained 4 pounds a month after surgery. It eventually came off plus a lot more. Good luck & don't worry!

26 pounds when I weight in one month after surgery and gained 3 two months after surgery

Yes, I gain and lose sporadically with a general downward trend. So for example, I was 242.6 a few days ago, the next day 243, then 242.8, this morning I am down to 241.2. This is a typical pattern for me.
