I have noticed my weight going back up as much as 5 pounds the very next day..  Is this normal.. I am 9 days post-op?

I'd call the doctor. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and have only gone down. It's slowing down, stalls for a day or 2 but going up doesn't make much sense (but I'm new to the world - so who knows) 

Good Luck

Stay off the scale!!!

Yes, it's very common for your weight to bounce up and down from day to day, or even from morning to night. The scale can make you completely crazy, so my advice is to put them away and ONLY weigh at your doctor's office. This way, you'll NEVER struggle with a stall.

You're still very newly post-op.  Your body can be retaining water, plus the impacts from just having surgery.  It is really common.  Keep on your surgeon's protocol and you'll be fine.

You can call your surgeon to make sure.  Congrats on your WLS.
