To all of the teachers out there. How long did you stay out of work? Since we are on our feet all day and have to be "on" at all times, I am worried that I will be too weak for a while, especially during the liquids stage. What did you do?

I was off wednesday to tuesday the next week... No problems!

My surgeon required a minimum of two weeks off with a recommendation of three weeks. I teach 8 preps a day, so he wanted more time off. Am I ever glad I listened to him. It's two weeks post-op and finally getting energy back!

Thank you all for your responses. @@reticentrebel How on earth do you have 8 preps a day???

marbelvsg - I teach technology and library K-6. Some grades have larger amounts of teachers, so I double up. Start at 8:10, 35 minute classes, 5 minute transitions and no planning. It is not an ideal schedule, but I love what I do and the kiddos are awesome!
