Gaining already????
Your body is going thru a WTF? & I hate you so much right now phase.lol Really it's all the fluids & stuff you're given for the surgery so you'll see a lot of fluctuations scale wise. Take it easy, your body is in healing mode & it'll take awhile b4 it gets its groove back.
Hope you have a speedy recovery & Welcome to the losers bench!

Weight fluctuates naturally each day even when we aren't trying to lose weight, nevermind after surgery. 10 pounds since surgery in 11 days is pretty fantastic, actually.
Weight loss is a long journey. It will take me another 1-2 years to hit goal... it's a slow process sometimes. Our bodies adjust and are dynamic. They are not a closed system that operates perfectly every second. Stress, sleep, mood, environment, and definitely surgery all affect weight loss, too.
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!
It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much...the life we receive is not short but we make it so; we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully. -- Seneca, On the Shortness of Life
It is physically impossible for you to be gaining fat right now - remember that! Just because the scale goes up it doesn't automatically mean you are getting fatter. You are retaining water. A gallon of water weighs 8 lbs.
My advice, stay off the scale. Your body is in a bit of turmoil right now so soon after surgery and will protect itself in a variety of ways - retaining water is one of them. Keep on your plan and don't let your emotions be ruled by daily fluctuations of the scale. That path leads to insanity
