I would say at least 6-8 weeks. Need for your pouch to be healed. Walking is best for now. Ask your doc or nurse.

This is what I use at he gym and when I mountain bike the trails near my house. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001U0OFDC/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00 I did a lot of research and Polar seems to be a good brand. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

Stitches on my tummy? I think they are ones melt away after a while. Never told if they needed to be removed. I did have a drain and they took that out at the hospital. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

They gave mean bottle for pain but I have yet to use it. I yet to be in any pain. Then again every body is different. I feel like nothing ever happened. Although I can say that my food intake has changed of course. I'm already down 25 lbs since the 4th. Key for me I have hitting the gym and walking about 1.5 to 2 miles a day. Very slowly at the gym trend mill. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

Wish I could answer your question. Mine surgery was on a Tuesday and was told I could leave on Thursday but decided to day an extra day. So you might be able to go to RPO. I just started pureed foods an by Xmas eve/Xmas I might be able to do some sort of soft food like fish. It won't be much but it will be something. Good Luck on you new life!!!!!

The idea of puréeing doesn't sound so great to me. I might give it a try. Did you purée the tuna also? Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

So I start pureed on Thursday. Well depends on what the doc says. With these foods you mentioned are you puréeing it or making it as mashed as possible? Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

Thanks Punk.. I figured if I smashed it up enough I should be good to go. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

My surgery was the same day as yours Lisa. I agree with you in the liquid/ Protein drinks are getting boring. Thursday is when I think I get to start puréed. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

What about DD iced coffee decaf? My norm was Splenda with cream. If I'm able to go back to it I guess skim milk might be the way to go. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk

Get to go home today. On Clear liquids. What I get to choose that was on the tray? Well crystal light lemonade, hot tea, green Jello or beef broth. Beef broth had worse smell and I tried it and was nasty. Sticking with green jello and crystal light. Sent from my iPad using RNYTalk -
