Getting sleeved May 10. We are leaving on June 7th (4 weeks postop) for Key West. This was scheduled prior to decision to sleeve and cannot be rescheduled. According to my postop diet schedule, I should be starting soft foods that day. I plan on taking it very easy while there, just worried about weakness, depression, and all the negative feelings that I read about. Would love to know how you felt 4 weeks out.

I think you will be fine. Just remember to get in your protein and water. Key West is a great place to get in your walking.

I was sleeved Nov 12th and went on vacation Dec. 30th. A little longer than you but I felt great. It was time for me to take care of myself!!

I was sleeved on a Tuesday and had to go to Branson that Friday for my daughter's cheep competition. It was a 5 hour drive. We stopped every hour so I could get out and walk. I did just fine. Just be sure to get up and move and drink your fluids! You'll be fine too

Yes, I just hope I feel like walking!

I'm going on a cruise to Bermuda and I will be just hitting 6 weeks out... I just need to remind myself that I'm there to relax and get a good tan!! Not to taste all of the food onboard!! At least I know I'll get plenty of exercise walking the ship and the island!!

Have a blast and relax!! If you are depressed I think that vacation will help you greatly!!!

Yes, I just hope I feel like walking!

You definitely should by 4 weeks....

You will be physically ready for sure. With in a day or 2 you should be up walking- a lot- to avoid DVT's. A couple weeks later you won't even feel like you had surgery. But your stomach will remember. Stick to your bariatric guidelines and you will feel fantastic. What a great way to start your exercise program. Stay positive! Good luck.
