I've been dealing with some discomfort and weight gain since my laparoscopic surgery for an inguinal hernia about 3.5 months ago. I often feel pain where the hernia was and sometimes there's this stretching sensation near the stitches. I'm really looking for some advice on how to lose this extra weight and I'm also curious about when these symptoms might ease up. What would you suggest?
