How long did it take, after VSG, to return to pre-op energy levels and mental clarity? I am planning on returning to work 4 weeks after surgery. My job is fast passed and I must be able to keep up mentally as much as physically.

I was good at a desk job about 3 weeks after surgery. Thinking was fine. For 100% of my energy to return, it took almost 2 months.

100% of energy was almost 2 months for me as well. The first 6 weeks, i was fine mentally after the first week, but my body just wanted to sit and not do much anywhere. I walked some, but it was a good 6 weeks before i had the energy to do anything outside of work on a regular basis. I am now almost 3 months and have a super amount of energy.

Everyone's body reacts differently, just listen to your body, if your tired relax don't over do it.

We are all different, we react differently to our challenges, it does not benefit to copy from another as we each have our own list of ? 20 questions to fulfill . And each of us will win our own final victory ?and that makes it even sweeter to consider.
