Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Yes, getting back to your initial preoperative weight is advisable. Bloating is not serious, as long as you can eat and have regular bowel movements.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
