Why did I gain weight after gall bladder surgery?

I had my gall bladder removed yesterday. (I had WLS in June 2003) When I got home this morning I weighed myself and was up 5 whole pounds! Is this normal for the day after? Could this weight gain be water retention or gas? I didn't eat anything but chicken broth and jello after surgery.
