Congratulations on going back to work and think of running back and forth to the break room as extra steps to count towards your exercise!

I ended up having a hiatal hernia, which wasn't expected! So I was in the hospital for 2 days. I was off work about 10 days, which for some is too long, but just about right for me. I am still on a 20 lb weight restriction .But I go to the dr tomorrow for my first check up so I'll find out then how I'm doing!

My doctor recommened about 2 weeks off, the port is sew directly into muscle so that' is about the sorest spot I have.

To me it doesn't seem like you are off long at all...but everyone is different!
