Back 2 Work Today

Hello. I had my surgery exactly 2 weeks ago, 4/23/12. I returned to work today...I just wanted to be off the liquid stage. I feel pretty good...sipped all day. I choked down most of a boiled egg this morning, before work. They were giving away coffee, bagels, & donuts at the new cafe at my job. I got a 1/2 cup of decaf, no goodies. I threw away the coffee, no taste for it yet. My eyes wanted some bread or a donut but...I was straight. I had a few spoons of Wendys chilli, for lunch. It's just important for me to let my body heal & adjust.

    Glad to hear that you are doing better. I was sleeved on last Thursday May 3rd and returned to work on Monday May 7th! I work for a bariatric surgeons office at a desk, so they were not trying to hear

I go back to work Thursday and I'm curious how I will hold up also! I am a week post op now. I tried going to Walmart Saturday and I didn't do very well. I had to find a bench and fast ! I have a desk job so hopefully it will be fine.

I was two weeks out hen I returned to work. Just be sure you don't let time get away from you. One day I got really busy and before I knew it, I had gotten really weak. Just make sure you eat on schedule or as close to it as possible.

I have a desk job also. I got a little sleepy around 2:30, but that's my normal poop out time. I had a serious 2 week roller coaster...I fully intend NOT to cause myself any discomfort. I had a little lunch kit ready.

Glad to hear that you are doing better. I was sleeved on last Thursday May 3rd and returned to work on Monday May 7th! I work for a bariatric surgeons office at a desk, so they were not trying to hear it! Lol...thank God, so far, so good!
