After an open surgery how long does it take before your stomach can move normally?

I am 11 days post-op open VBG and am wondering when I can move normally again. When can I twist around without thinking about it or bend over to the ground or stand up completely straight or sleep in my bed or heck even wipe my own butt the same way I did before!?! I'm basically jsut wondering when the soreness goes away.... can anyone share their healing time?
