Weight gain 2 days after surgury

So I had vsg (sleeve) on Wed Aug 26. Today is sat and I've gained 2 pounds . did anyone experience weight gain after surgury ?

I gained 19 pounds. When I complained to my surgeon he laughed and told me to go home and pee it out.

I was weighed as soon as I got out of bed for my first walk after surgery.  I bet you weighed more two days ago.  They pump you full of water to do the surgery.

You will have a lot of swelling and water retention the first few days after surgery!  They don't give u to many fuilds during surgery.  When they do weight loss surgery they try and give u less so that your intestines are resting more.  Before I had my surgery, I got to watch the RNY open be done on a lady!  I sat with her through her whole surgery until.  I was a nursing student at the time.  It also depends on if you did everything your doctor said prior to surgery.  Your liver shrinks when you go on the lighter diet, if you did not do that it can cause more inflammation because they had to work around it.  It was pretty fascinating watching it live before I had it and really understood it!

Wow that's great you got to watch it. 

I got a really got a really good understanding of it after!  If I had to do it again it would have been open instead of laporscopic.  Doctors can see better what they are doing!

My surgeon told me not to weigh myself until at least a week after surgery. He said I would be up at least 10lbs due to all the IV fluids they use to keep you hydrated.

I started the morning of surgery at 230.  before I went home 2 days later I was 238.  My surgeon laughed at me too and told me to stay off the scale for one month (of course I haven't). 10days later I am 215.  All IV fluids in the hospital.

Sadly, they didn't even warn you about pumping you full of fluids during surgery and recovery...you know....that IV bag.
