It depends on what kind of job you have. I work at a desk. I am on the phone and computer most of the time. I had surgery on Wednesday and was back at work on Monday. If your job requires more physical exertion, I would take more time.

Good luck!!

I am a nurse and I took four weeks off and was so glad to have the time to heal, rest, and learn to eat and drink with my new sleeve.

I took 1 week I had my surgery on 7/20 n went back on 7/27 but yes it does depend on the work you do. I have to admit I felt better but extremely weak the first day or two not sure if anyone can relate.

I took one week off. I was totally exhausted and spent a lot of that first week sleeping. I work from home full time. The second week I worked 4-5 hours each day. By the third week I was back full time. But I had to start working from the couch and the coffee table because it hurt my back really badly to sit in my desk chair all day.

I am very active at work (work IT in hotels), I am glad I found this. I was wondering how many days to take. I was thinking two weeks would be a good number but I am now wondering.

I had surgery July 15th, and i have desk job. I am going back to work august 3rd so took 2.5 weeks off. I probably could I have went back one week out but would rather be safe and make sure I'm 100%.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
