Need some advise

Hey, I was banded on Thursday and came home today. Before the surgery I was 8 pounds lighter than when I coming came home today. I figured it's from fluid and swelling. Here is my question my belly is so swollen. And I am concern and wondering

If this was normal and if so how long does it take to go down?

    If you stick to the liquids and do what the doctor says you should see it go down in a week or so.... It's normal.
