“How do I stop my weight loss?”
I have been losing weight since I had double hernia surgery in May 2020. I was 215, now I am 140 and still losing. Can that surgery cause this?

Consult Functional Medicine and Endocrinology.
That amount of unintentional weight loss is not normal. Hernia surgery does NOT cause weight loss. You should see your primary physician ASAP so that he/she may do some tests to determine the cause.
Depending on the type of surgery you actually had it could definitely be related to surgery. However, losing weight without actually trying and that much weight sounds like something more serious could be happening so you should be evaluated by a doctor to assess for the cause of your unexplained weight loss.
