I got my rabbit spayed yesterday morning and she has barely eaten since and I don't think she has pooped.

Rabbits have very sensitive GI systems and signs of inappetence and constipation could suggest a serious underlying illness. It is very important that you take Emmie back to the vet who spayed her right away. These signs could be because if a reaction to the anesthesia or they could suggest a more serious issue including infection or pain from the surgery. Good luck! I hope Emmie is feeling better soon.

This isn't a very good sign, it can happen either due to pain or due to gut stasis caused by the anesthesia, i would recommend taking her to the vet that spayed her as she will need some supportive treatment to get her GI system moving again as well as pain killers if she has not received any yet.
