Yea for you!  I didn't want to take off too much time because I want to use my vacation days for some REAL vacation time.  Woo Hoo!

I am not big boned!  Bones don't jiggle!

Office Job with Stress, but nothing physical.
Ext. Brachioplasty, Anchor TT with muscle work & extensive Thigh Lipo... I went back after three full weeks and I needed every day of that three weeks.

I love my job, but there was no way I could have gone back earlier. Recovery was fine, but more than I had realized given I had this much work being done on my body at once.

Great...Those couple of days made a huge difference to me. I was struggling at the 2 1/2 week mark especially when I had to move around to go to the pantry, bathroom, lunch, etc...

I am a teacher and had my surgery during my summer break. I had a lbl and bl. I had 7 weeks off after surgery before I had to go back to school. I needed every one of them because I was EXHAUSTED, but then again I am old.
