I had IV fluids and just by looking at my swollen feet I could tell that it was Water retention. Do yourself a favour and stay away from the scales for now.

Did your doctor tell you to remain on liquid diet for so long? Three weeks seems like a lot. They had me eating soft/pureed foods starting day 1 after surgery.

Yes, tomorrow I finally get to eat soft foods but with my weight gain I got worried. He actually wanted me to go on a liquid diet for another week since I was Dehydrated and was vomiting But he said if I felt better I could eat soft foods

if you're on a liquid diet, that gain wasn't a real gain. Probably Water retention from the IV.
