Surprisingly, no! I have desk job and by the end of the day I was a little more tired than normal but it was no difficult or unmanagable. It really depends on what you do for work I think. I made sure that I had only projects that could be done at my desk rather than my usual traveling around, etc. Good luck.!Greetings from Northern Maine! I am a newbie, just sleeved on February 7th. It was an amazing process, went back to work a week after the surgery! HAve been feeling wonderful. Had my two week follow-up yesterday and lost only 6 pounds. The surgeon was very happy with that but I left feeling that I should have lost more! Only liquids and losing only 6 pounds? Saw the NUT after that and she said there is no standard for expected weight loss following the sleeve becasue it still is so new. What are your thoughts? I, like many of you, have had so many diet failures thorughout my lifetime that I am worried this didn't work...did the surgeon not take enough of my stomach (crazy thoughts, I know). What say all of you? Should I worry? I have started the mushies as of this morning, so far, so good! Love this site and all of you!
