    Swimming

    As soon as all of your incisions are healed. I LOVE swimming!!
  2. My doctor said to do whatever I needed to so I can go. I had to do 2 Colace in the am and 2 in the pm, and Miralax at night.
  3. It's just a different scale. For accuracy, is the same scale. My home scale is 10 lbs different from my doctor. Don't sweat it.

    Pain

    That is probably where the surgeon inserted the largest instrument. It's the most painful, and takes the longest to heal. Roll to your side before you sit up.

    Protein shake

    Post op pain is pretty severe. Once you get past that it is painful to roll on your side and coughing or sneezing kills! BUT you will be so glad you did it!

    Constipation

    My doc told me to do whatever I needed to to keep things moving. I take 2 Colace every night and Miralax with water. I also take Mirafiber in the morning. It sucks, I KNOW!
  14. Let's face it, everyone loved going out to eat with us!! Eating is definitely not as much fun as it used to be, but it's time for new fun.

    Very New and Scared

    Don't tell people if you aren't willing to hear their negativity. I told my husband, kids and 2 close friends. Nobody else because I wanted to go in with a positive mind set. I have a 2nd cousin who almost died from bypass and is now on disability. I still needed to do this for ME. I'm so glad I did! Since day after surgery no BP meds after 23 years of them!
