How soon can I lose weight after BBL?

How soon can I lose weight after BBL? How to lower salt intake without reducing calories, when can I lose (fat) weight again?  I've got over 10lbs of water weight on me after bbl surgery. I understand I am supposed to have a low salt diet, but I'm unsure of what foods to eat that can help me lose this water weight while maintaining the calorie intake so that my body doesn't absorb the fat that was just put in my put. Any dietary/nutrition advice is appreciated. Also any tips/tricks to reduce swelling are appreciated. I'm already using arnica, bromelain, and eating pineapples....
