Default They say...

They say not to gain weight, but I don't think they would reschedule your surgery unless you gain a HUGE amount of weight and you are already at an extreamly high risk. I know that I started out at my consult I weighed in at 314 and by my pre-op I had gone up to 319. I actually gained a large amount of weight (water weight I suppose from being on the IV's) while in the hospital. I was up to 327 the day after surgery and down to 320 the day I was discharged. Talk about a Yo-Yo...LOL Just try to not do like I did and eat everything in the house prior to the surgery! I was all over the ice cream...LOL
Relax and just go with the flow! You'll be fine!
