I know some of the stomach swelling was from gas. but I am two weeks out, and my stomach is still so swollen. I can tell by my pants being tight on my waist - pants that were loose before surgery and I have lost about 10 lbs since surgery. .

i m sure muscles, etc are still swollen and healing in there, right? its not really painful, just uncomfortable sometimes.

Perfectly normal and will go down as you heal further.

I was that way for about 3 weeks out . I still get a little bloated when I drink my Water or Protein Shakes. It does get better though. I'll be 4 weeks out Tuesday.
