      Don't panic, it's not real weight gain. You just had major surgery. It's fluids and swelling and stuff. Quit weighing yourself for a while. This too shall pass.

    I gained 10 pounds of water weight in the hospital. It goes away pretty quickly, and you will soon start seeing weight loss. Good luck!!
