No disrespect to anyone,... but ask yourself, is the sun helping? The plant is trying to recover from the transplant. (as i stated below) Direct sunlight is just gonna put more stress on it at this time. (you said yourself a couple times, it's not helping) Maybe you should give it time (and it could take a couple weeks) and wait till it is actively growing, then, try and work it into the sun. Your prob gonna lose some or all the outer leafs regardless. If the new one coming up starts to rot, then you can worry a bit. Light yes, direct sunlight no. Again this is my opinion/suggestion but of course it's your plant, your choice.I can tell you it's gonna do the same thing when you plant it in the ground as the sun gets much hotter. Try to do it without disturbing the roots to much. (it will adapt much quicker.)

ps. A full spectrum plant light bulb would be a better alternative to the sun at this time. It's not gonna fry your plant. (just a thought) Also good to have for the winter.
