I had a gastric sleeve on Tuesday, August 3. Have felt tired and drained since. Today was the first day I have weighed since surgery. I have gained 2 pounds since surgery. I am following the post op diet to the letter. Has this happened to anyone else?

You’re still full of fluids from surgery.

Yes. It's very common. I stayed at the hospital for only one night, they weighed me when I entered, and weighed me when I left. I had gained a whopping 10.5 lbs. from their fluids.

happens to most (maybe all?) of us. yes - IV fluids. It can take a few days for them to work their way out of your system.
