Most likely, the problem is probably from water retention. They pump A LOT of fluids through those IV's they give you and the weight adds up. I had the same problem for awhile. It is normal. Start drinking more water and hopefully your body will start flushing more out. Do you look like you are retaining water? Good Luck to you! (open RNY 7/23/02 -60lbs)
