Asked By:emma35

I had a bbl and lypo 5 days ago and have gained 10 pounds. I'm getting scared as I'm eating heathly and have worked very hard to get down to my goal weight. I maintained for a year and was expecting to be 10 pounds less after purchasing the medifast system since I couldn't exercise while recoving. I know I'm swelking but what should I do about the weight gain? Is this normal and will the weight go away?
