Default Anyone else GAIN weight before eating post op?

Oh boy...Threads are confusing! I wasn't sure where to ask this so I making a new post...
I went for my one week check up (post op) and I gained 2 pounds!!!! Did this happen to anyone else? the Dr said it is water weight from the IV. I was so excited to get on the scale and then to see that was a little disheartening

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Yes, it sounds like IV fluid gain. Don't panic, it will go away in another week or so.

Yes I heard it was really common for people to gain weight because fluid from IV and the gas they use, if you can not get rid of it. I was lucky and I did not but doctor said almost everyone does.

I think I gained 11 lbs. It's normal and it's water weight and swelling. Don't worry - water weight is the easiest to lose and your body will need the water because it's so hard to drink the first few weeks.
