If you think it is not getting better I would go to the doctors. Just to make sure. I know if I eat salty things I will swell up.

Thanks for the reply. I have been staying away from salt except what is in my protein because everything tastes salty to me after surgery.

Thanks Sheri,

27 lbs. of my loss was pre-op from cutting back in preparation and the 9 day liquid diet that was required by the surgeon. Still proud of losing almost 50 lbs so far though. I have been in a stall form week 3 to week 5 which has been really frustrating but I think I am back to making progress. Now I am just worried about my swelling ankles and feet...always something.

I hadn't noticed the weight loss on your signature until Sheri said it, but you're doing amazing! I had surgery the day before you and have lost about 23 pounds, feels slow sometimes. WTG--hope the swelling gets better. My ankles and legs swell a bit when it's so hot out, and my labs showed my protein a little low, so I'm going to try this tip as well.
