Someone asks this question almost every day. Try the "search" feature.

You were told you couldn't smoke after WLS before you had it, and if you had asked the surgeon you would have been told that this includes smoking pot.

You can however use eatibles and tinctures available in dispensaries if you have a medical marijuana card or to everyone if live in a civilized and Enlightened state

How long did you wait before you tried it?

Well I do get it medicinally and my doctor knows I smoke it. Told me to stop 1 month before surgery and not start again until about 1 month afterwards.

Perhaps the best person to ask for advice is someone who knows your medical history and WLS complications with certain pre/post surgery behaviors; your surgeon.
