Sleeved 5/9/16 - Question on Healing Time

Hey There - I am 1 wk post op and learning to interpret my sleeve's new signals. I am walking and mobile every day. I get in my Water and Protein - some days better than others (a work in process). And I've been fortunate not to experience any nausea, ongoing gas pains, or acid reflux, but have had some mild diarrhea.

My belly remains quite swollen, tender to the touch, and hard. I know everyone heals differently, and the important role walking, protein and water plays in healing, but about how long after surgery does the belly start to feel "normal"?

Thank you!!
