Answer: Weight gain after surgery Although it is common to gain water weight and feel bloated for a few weeks after surgery due to hormone shifts and the body’s stress response, 15 pounds is more than expected. Mention this to your surgeon and make sure there isn’t anything abnormal going on now. If things don’t return to normal after you are back to normal activity, then discuss this with your family practice doctor or OB/GYN since there may be another cause for the weight gain.

Answer: Is this inflammation in my body? Thanks for your question. Whereas it is somewhat normal to see shift in fluid balance after surgery it shouldn’t last more than a week and seldom would It amount to more than a few pounds. It would be nice if we knew whether the weight is due to fat or lean body mass since if you weight lift this could be muscle mass and not fat that you are gaining. You can buy scales that calculate the percent body fat and which compartment it’s in too. See if this helps solve your problem. Also you should seek medical advise from yout GP if it doesn’t self correct with return to normal numbers.
