@Hoppy Nanny Chrissie 14 days is reasonable but 28 seems excessive my tummy will be black n blue by then - fortunately I have a wee bit of fat as it would be awful otherwise
Some of this is fluid. But I am afraid it's not the prosthesis. Here's an article from our Library: Weight of hip and knee prosthesesI weighed myself this morning and to my horror had put on half a kilo since my operation
I weighed myself this morning and to my horror had put on half a kilo since my operation ( must be the new knee lol) although it's more likely the relaxed living and little movement - I thought I might have lost more weight having given up alcohol for over 1 month :-(
I gained about 8 pounds. (sigh) One would think that healing would use up more calories than that but it didn't.I put on 6 lbs, and reckon at least half is due to the excess metal and swelling I've got.
Just blame the swelling, that’s probably what it is.@Jaycey @Carole4815 What a shame was hoping to blame the prosthesis for the weight gain haha
