    Did you weigh yourself when you got home? My doctor pumped so much extra fluid into me that I spent the first several days just taking off the weight that was added in the hospital. Then, I lost a quick 10 pounds additional and then stalled for 2 weeks. Don't worry. You can't eat - so your body can't hold on to the weight forever.

    Yeah, takes awhile for swelling to go down and lose weight from IV fluids.
