6 days post op and a major op at that. Lots of pain and swelling still , first two weeks are a nightmare apparently and I can vouch that they appear to be.
So although it appears I've gained 2 kg, I'm not phased. I know my eating plan works. I know my body. I just have to ride out this recovery, keep eating right, stay focussed.
interestingly I weighed in at 78.2 on the morning of the op. With no food or drink by the time they weighed me in hospital later that morning I weighed 78.8kg. Stress, inflammation, pain etc all impact my weight. I know that.
So relax, grit your teeth through the rehab exercises, and ride it out deary.
I'm now bionic, screw and pin, maybe they are causing the weight gain 🤔 🤣

It may be a bumpy ride - inflammation does wreck havoc with weight loss, fingers crossed for you

Thank you all for your kind words and support. Pain is not good but I'm off the pain killers and just gritting teeth as I do the exercises. Hard work but I know it will be worth it.
Yes inflammation, pain, medication all affect the weight. Legs swollen and will be for a while yet. See surgeon again next week.
Weight wise, sticking to my eating plan, albeit a couple of people dropping over with biscuits and red frogs. Ha ha. I'm trying to stay strong. Onwards and downwards 👇

I’ve just had surgery too and I have the extra couple of kilos but know it’s got to be water weight :(
