how much time off work?

Hi everyone......... I am wonder how long people usually take of from work. I'm gonna be banded on October 16th, and was told by my doctor that i was only going to need a week off, then when I got my leave paperwork back from her it said i would need to be off for 2 wks. Does 2 weeks seem like a long time?:thumbup:

Need advice...2YRS POST OP

So, just like the title says....I'm 2 yrs post op and need advice. :-) .I was banded in october of 2009, started at 295, on the day of surgery I was 275, now I weigh about 235.(haven't lost weight in over a year) I have 5.5 cc in a 10 cc band. My portion size is definitely smaller than pre surgery, but I feel like it should be smaller.....I walk daily and swim about twice a week. I do not exercise like crazy, but I'm not super lazy either...I will eat a meal and be hungry again in 2 hours..... Also, I'm not getting enough protein...... Are there any words of advice?... anyone know of some high protein food besides meat?...... feel like I need to start back over, but where do I start?......Thanx for listening to me vent :-)

advice RE: Liqiuds

Just wondering if I can get some advice......... I was banded last friday (the 16th) and have been drinking chicken noodle soup,black bean soup, yogurt, pudding and protien shakes. All of the stuff that has any kind of "lump or bump" I blend in the food processor. I figured that pretty much anything could be turned in to liquid, but I found out today that I should only have broth, milk and my protien shakes until monday. I just wonder if I could have done any damage to my stomach, or the healing process. Is there any one that went through this or that has any advice? Thanks
