Hi All,  I am 15 days post-op and feeling great...already down 23 lbs since the big day.  How much should I be walking each day.  Just got back from a 1 mile walk.  Is that enough?  Thanks!

Yeah, that is great for just two weeks out.  My surgeon wanted me walking 30 minutes by 30 days out.  I'm guessing a mile probably takes you 15 or 20 minutes right now, right?  Good for you for getting started on the exercise right away.
