Is Loss Of Appetite/weight Normal After Having Umbilical Hernia Repair/gall Bladder Removal?

I had two surgeries 5 weeks ago. I god my gall bladder out and they had to cut a 12 inch cut because my gall bladder was scared and they had to peal it off my liver. I also had an Umbilical heria repaired at the same time. I don t have an appetite and have lost 12 lb. Is that normal and when do you think my appetite will come back. The incisions have healed well and I don t have stomach pain very often. Diarria once in a while.
