I work as a Secretary. I don't lift anything heavy and spend most of my time reading and typing/data entry. How long will I have to be off of work. I have heard that people take 2-4 weeks off and are still in bad shape after 6 weeks.?? I have had several surgeries in my life and never took as long to heal as most. Think.. i had a hysterectomy (abdominal) back to work in 3.5 weeks. Doc said most people are out for 6 weeks. I don't really want to be out more than 5 work days. Cant wait to hear your input!!

Wow... can you eat something simple as bite of a hamburger, or a grilled cheese? I am having this dreaded lap band out.. as soon as my doc gets it scheduled. I have not been able to eat any sandwich type food since 8/2008. Not that I would eat much of it anyway.. but not even a bite of a hamburger.. because i would be running to the toilet, cause it would be stuck. It didn't matter how little the bite was, how much I chewed... It wasn't going down. Tell me all the great things that you have tried to experience in moderation, of course.
