Yep, its gallstones......recovery time info please

I am now officially 5 months out from Lap RNY and have gone from a size 28 to a size 18 pants 14/16 tops, starting weight of 270 and I'm now at 185 and absolutely loving life.......and then this intense pain starts, well it turns out I have those lovely gall stones and I am now scheduled to have my gall bladder removed July 18th, it will be a Lap procedure. For those of you that have experienced the joy of this surgery, could you please give me an idea of what amount of healing time you needed. The only surgery I have ever had was the Gastric Bypass surgery and I'm not sure how comparible the healing time will be to this up coming gallbladder removal surgery. I was thinking of taking 1 or 2 weeks off work, does this sound about right to anyone? I have a job where I am on my feet all day, 50 hours a week. Thanks for any input you can give me!
