I am 6 days post op my surgery was on 10/29 i received a lot of fluids in the hospital, I hve some swelling and Water retention in my legs. I feel blotted all the time. My doc said it will take time I will see him next week, he may give me a water pill to get rid of some water. Anyone experience this. With that being said I have not lost any weight I have gained weight on Clear Liquids. Today I just started Protein drinks:(

It will come off. Just give your body time to heal from the surgery and focus on healing up, getting well and staying hydrated and getting Protein. I assure you it is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE not to lose weight b/c your calories are so restricted.

Good Luck!
