    Bloating, water retention, constipation, body shock. Don't worry, it will happen. If you haven't gone to bathroom, or are feeling "off" give your doctor a call to make sure everything is running smoothly.

    Just make sure you are getting your water and protein in and the weight should start coming off. They fill you full of SO MUCH fluid in the hospital. I've read some people gain 6 to 8 pounds of it!

    I had the same frustrating problem. Believe in the process, follow the directions of those who posted before me, and be patient. Trust me. It WILL happen.

    I am one month out & down 26 lbs. but it is frustrating at times. Stay off the scales! I can tell a huge difference in my clothes already. I feel like I've dropped 40 lbs!

    Please believe that you will start to lose weight. My friend had gastric bypass one week before i had my Sleeve done and it seemed as if i wasn't losing any weight and she was getting smaller by the day. At 8 months out she has lost more weight than myself but I have alot less loose skin. Just remember slow and steady will win the race.

    Hello, It's bloating and water from surgery, took me almost 4 weeks to see a loss and then it was on....Give it a minute.
