Need to know!!!
Your doctor should be able to give you guideance on this one. A friend of mine who had lap RNY in Sept took off 3 weeks and she was fine when she came back. She has an office job with no lifting and she can sit quite a bit. It all depends on what you do and how you are feeling. I asked my Dr how long he thought I should be off and just requested that amount of time off. If I feel up to it, he said I could go back earlier, but that way I have the time off approved if I need it.
