Gained weight 2 weeks after surgery!!

I had my surgery on 3/26 and by 04/03 I lost 25 pounds, Over the next few days I gained 4 and have been at the same weight for over a week. Has this happened to anyone else?

Hi there.  Don't panic.  Sometimes the body needs time to catch up.  Call your nutritionist and go over what you have been eating and drinking.  It may be that you need to get more protein and/or water in.  Believe it or not, eating MORE protein will make you lose weight.  But again, it may just be that your body is in a holding pattern while it adjusts to how much you have already lost.  Think about it, when have you ever before lost 25 lbs in just two weeks?!  Call your nutritionist, she will be able to set your mind at ease and that is part of what she is there for.

It's water..Part of healing.. dont panic... you will start dropping pounds like bricks!!! Linda Kay

Thanks so much! I am so worried that I have screwed something up. Thanks

I had surgery the same day.  Lost twenty pounds in two weeks and then up three pounds...I am back down the three but the scales haven't moved below that.  I am 9 days into a stall and it sucks but I know my body is catching up with all the trauma I put it through.  We'll make it. Good luck on your journey.
