How soon after the surgery are you able to walk up and down stairs? My procedure is 4/24 but I have stairs where I live

I walked up and down stairs on the very day of my surgery. I was walking a little slowly, but really didn't have any issues with it.

I was able to use the stairs 2 days post op....just take it slow and make sure you have someone to assist the first time, especially if you're taking any pain meds.

In the recovery room I was in right after surgery there were some stairs outside my door. I was walking up and down them within 5 hours post op to go check on some other ladies that just had surgery. It was kinda awkward carrying the IV with me but the stairs were no problem.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
