Whether or not your weight gain is related to your operation can only be determined by your doctor. In particular, you must consult the doctor who did your operation. This is your best bet to determine the connection, if there is one.
The reason why this determination is important is that if indeed your weight gain is related to your operation, or post operative measures, then those would need to be modified and worked upon to control your weight. Only your doctor, the person who has prescribed any post operative medications, can tell you this for certain.
Once you are done with this route, you should also keep in mind that gaining weight post operatively is also a side effect of lack of general mobility.
