The medical gas they use during the procedure is known for that. Plus there is likely some bloat due to pain meds making your digestion slower. I just had an emergency repair of an internal hernia & I gained 10 pounds from all the fluids they gave me.

Just walk as much as you can & drink lots of Water it will help with the bloating.

Today was the first day of a more solid food - cottage cheese, mashed potatoes, Greek yogurt, cream of wheat and applesauce. It was fantastic to feel something in my mouth at Breakfast other than a liquid. I've lost 14 lbs to date and I'm 10 days post op
