Weight post surgery

Hey everyone,

This might be a bit of a weird question, but I wanted to see if anyone has had a similar experience.

I’m about 6 months post-op and since the surgery I’ve noticed two things: weight gain and a noticeably increased appetite. At the beginning, I was totally fine with it as my activity was much lower, recovery takes energy, and I assumed things would slowly go back to normal once I became more active again.

The thing is, for the last few months my activity level has increased a lot (almost back to normal), but I’m still not losing the weight and my appetite still feels higher than it used to be pre-surgery.

I’m not sure if this could still be related to the surgery, recovery, or something else or if it’s just coincidence so I wanted to ask if anyone else experience weight gain or increased appetite months after surgery? If yes, was there anything that helped ?
