So I am now 9 days post op, 25 lbs down! I feel amazing! I meet my surgeon yesterday and I am healing well, I do have some bruising however. I watch my 4 1/2 month old, 20lb son, all day and have no issues lifting/playing with him. I am now on a purée diet. My wife made turkey chili and I purée'd that last night. Was able to get 2 tbsp down(with cheese and tapitio) OMG, my whole body changed after eating! I have been so tired and lethargic and I never thought 2 tbsp of food could give me so much energy! It's funny because I'm using my sons spoons to eat, he's not using them yet! Lol. I still have some gas but have taken a small, strained, BM the last 3 days. The two things I forgot to ask my surgeon were: coffee intake soon? And should I be using Fiber? Anyways, sorry my story is all over the place, new to blogging. I'll keep you all updated!

Your son is adorable! I am 4 days post op and using my son's baby spoons as well! (He is 9, so he certainly doesn't need them.). From what I've read Fiber like Metamucil is a no no for at least 2 months. I think I've read 6 weeks for coffee, but I'm sure each team is a little different. Best of luck to you!

I'm 12 days post op, and used Miralax. I was desperate for relief
