Will the weight gain ever go????

After 5 months I have been diagnosed with BAM, I have crohns Disease and had lots of my bowel removed along with my gallbladder. I presented with rapid weigh gain, a stone in 2 weeks. Finally I have been prescribed Cholestagel which I take 4 a day for 3 weeks now and no change. Am I going to need to diet to get rid of this massive lump or does it just take more time. Its really impacting my mental health now. would really appreciate some advice from others. x
