1 week and back to work?

How many of you went back to work 1 week after Sleeve sugery??

How did it go???

I took a week of sick leave (and needed it).  The second week was a week of vacation (and enjoyed it).  I could have gone to work after one week but was glad I scheduled the vacation time the second week.  I spent that week getting adjusted to the new me.  Learning about how and when to do the protein and liquids and such.  I went shopping and did fun things like a pedicure and stuff.  I could have really returned the second week but am really glad it played out like it did.  Best wishes, Nan

Hi,

I had my surgery last Tues, Nov 25th and I went back to work yesterday.  I took a big bag with all my stuff and a very large pillow.   I was a little slower than normal, and one of the incision sites was a bit sore.  I made it through the whole day though.  When I came home last night from work, I slipped into pjs and hit the lazyboy.  Fell alseep about 8 PM and didn't wake up until 7 am this morning.  But what is surprising is that right now I feel wonderful.  Nothing hurts, I feel rested and am ready to start another day of work. 

Just get plenty of rest the week you are home and as long as you do not do anything strenuous at work, you should be fine.

Good luck!
