Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I'm 9 days out of surgery and would feel well enough for a weekend getaway, depending on what type of activities are planned.

daniotra 298 Posted August 15, 2016 Depends what you are planning on doing. A relaxing getaway with some walking, sure. My doc recommended waiting two weeks for sex. I waited 12 days as my husband was going out of town for a week. It wasn't comfortable, but not painful. Make sure you bring along stuff you can eat. That's difficult.

kelliev2015 136 Posted August 15, 2016 I had surgery on 8/8 and I already feel like I could do a weekend getaway except for the low energy. If it's relaxing, low key stuff, I'd be fine now (6 days post op). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pescador 1,374 Posted August 15, 2016 I was walking the mall four days after the sleeve. I was 68 then and needed no pain pills. Plan your meals carefully and relax. Have a good time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
