I am planning on returning to work the Monday after my surgery. Although I lift a lot at work its mostly by choice and I have spoken to my bosses about it and I will no be required to do any heavy lifting. unrealistic?

I was banded on 8/14. I work as a full time nurse. One thing that has really helped me is a heating pad. Will go back to work this wed. Great to have support on this site! In the mushie food stage now. Just trying to take everything slow. Good luck to everyone. We can do it! We all took a positive step towards being healthy.

Yes I agree the heating pad is my best friend these days just want the CO2 to leave my system already. Day 3 post op. hope everyone is doing well on here
