Overall it went well....... during the pre-op diet, I lost 10 pounds and was very pleased. During the 2 days in the hospital, I gained 10 pounds. I just got home and weighed, back up to my staring weight. Grrrrrrrrr..

I know it's all Fluid and will come off, but I'm also having a hard time tinkling.

I went through the same thing before leaving the hospital. I could not urinate. My Dr gave me like 3 extra bags of fluid to get things moving. It worked but I gained 10 pounds. I'm 12 days out and I've lost 24 pounds.

You are right it is swelling and fluids. Be patient and it will come right off. I gained also from surgery but it was gone in a week.
