Free Post-Op Starter Checklist

Your first week home, handled.

Surgery is behind you. Now comes the part nobody hands you a manual for: the first seven days at home, when everything is new, your body feels unfamiliar, and every sip is a decision.

Your First Week Home: The Post-Op Starter Checklist is a free 4-page PDF written by a bariatric patient who's been exactly where you are. Print it, stick it on the fridge, and check the boxes.

Inside the checklist

  • Stock-up list — everything to have at home before surgery day, so week one is about resting, not shopping
  • The rhythm of a good recovery day — sip, walk, rest: how the three loops fit together
  • Daily non-negotiables — a checkbox list for fluids, walks, meds, vitamins, and incision checks
  • Warning signs — what to call your team about, and what means urgent care
  • A printable 7-day log — one row a day to bring to your first follow-up
