I had surgery on a Tuesday, came home Wednesday and was back to the office on Monday. I had a very smooth recovery and was off the pain meds the day I came home. Everyone is different and responds differently to surgery. I had the same recovery time when I had my gall bladder removed. Only you will know when is best for you.
Good luck!!

You look great! Not to mention handsome .

Ah - see I thought you were asking if it woud be ok to eat 6 day old eggs...

I had a few bites of my sons scrambled egg yesterday. I'm 8 days out. I hear ya. It satisfied my craving but when I say a few bites it was prob 1tsp all together.

Well, I was really hoping to find more recipes in this group. . I may not have a true recipe, but I found something to make Protein Shakes a little more palatable. I'm only on my third day of the pre-op diet. The first day I thought "these Protein shakes are actually pretty good". The next day I thought "well, at least they're not THAT bad". Then today I'm thinking "how in the world am I ever going to live off these things?"????? Then I had an idea. I put some peppermint extract in my chocolate shake. To my surprise it made it so much better! Tomorrow I'm going to try banana in vanilla, and others. I'll let you know how it goes!

Love that dress! I plan on waiting to shop until I loose some/most of the weight. My birthday was last month and I got a couple of giftcards that I'm just going to save and treat myself to a shopping spree I will probably have to get some of my work clothes taken in (yay!) during the process but I will be more than okay with it!

Aye aye captain!

I had the same feeling 5 days post. Be careful though I have now realized that it's not so much the quantity of food I wanted...it was the taste. Good luck!
LOL @ "did he cut of enough?"

yes it hurts like hell. you would never think gas pains would be as high as they get after surgery. it is ffrom the gas they pump you up with. mine took almost 2 weeks to go away, but it DOES go away. you just have to wait and let it pass. good luck!

Aye aye captain!

That is really soon for eggs...
These were my instructions.
Post-op
Week 1 -2: liquid diet
Week 3: pureed phase
Week 4 - 5: soft food - My current phase
Week 6 and beyond: all food as tolerated
You should follow your post op instructions to a tee, as this will prevent complications with your new pouch. Remember why you started this journey to become a healthier you. Plus you'll eventually be able to eat all kind of foods.
The beginning stage is supposed to teach you discipline.
Just my 2 cents.

Walk walk walk and gasx!!
