I couldn’t weigh for 12 days as I was recouperating in a hotel. But at the end of that - I was well into losing.

but I think it varies a bit. It will happen!!

I lost 9 lbs on my pre op diet and gained 9 lbs while in the hospital. It took me about 5 days to lose that and by the end of week one I lost 3 more.

Try to stay off the scale and don't worry about it. I'd say within 2 weeks

I'm 5 days post op and still in pain; can't sleep on my side cause I feel that is tugging at my stomach. I still have pain on my neck and shoulders... the doctor had me do a cat-scan and everthing showed okay. Anyone else went through this?

Just a thought but I'm wondering if some of the air they filled your belly with traveled up into the neck/shoulder. I have heard this can happen if you late too flat initially after any laparoscopic surgery. I hope you feel better soon.

5 days post op of Bypass. Feeling good, no pain just tired. Drinking Water 42-48 oz and Protein 60 g. Still on liquids but Soup menu has increased. Have noticed that Jello has lost its appeal but popsicles (sugar free) I am still loving. From 400lbs (January 2019)to 319lbs currently. Thanks to my family and friends and these post and support groups.

I left the hospital heavier than I went in too. I was so discouraged the first few days at home—wanting to see the instant effects on the scale..especially since I was feeling so crummy. I’m 8 days post-op and the scale is moving in the right direction and those pesky pounds from the hospital are almost gone.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
