How many days off from work post-op?



Recommended Posts

I took 3 weeks and needed it, the first two weeks physically (tiredness/sleeping a lot) and mentally (2nd-3rd week emotional wreck LOL).

OMG, I am so jealous. Seriously, if I could do it over again, I would take a month. I was an overachiever and came back after 2 weeks. Unless there are serious financial reasons, no idea why I pushed myself for a job?!

30 days

That's what I was thinking I will do, maybe 10 days. I'm aiming for labor day weekend also so that there's an extra "cushion" day, so to speak, where my whole department will off.

Exactly my plan with Labor day. We are only allowed a week of vacation at a time so I will be back at work the next week. My job is fairly physical but my boss was sleeved 8/2015 so she will work with me.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
