Although I haven't had surgery yet, I was wondering how soon after the surgery you returned to work. I know everyone's different. I work at a desk job and can easily work from home. I've heard that fatigue is an issue for awhile... so how long is that? Appreciate any information you care to share. I don't want to cut my healing time short, but I don't want to take any more time than I need to.

I couldn't find any info on the BLISS program. What is it? Any details you could share would be super! Many thanks.

Thank you! I will do as you suggest, but I'm somewhat releived.

I belong to a weight group. Our therapist has had a lot of experience with the lap band and gastric bypass. her lap band patients have not done particularly well -- always hungry, constatnt adjustments frustrated and depressed. I also just started the evaluation process for weightloss surgery. The hospital I go to is a very prestigious one in in Boston. For what it's worth, the psychiatrist said the surgeons there no longer recommend the lap band.
