I think this is so different for everyone, just like your weight loss journey will be. I am normally a very quick healer and was back to push mowing the lawn in 3 days. What you need to do is listen to your body and do what's best for you. Don't use others experiences to determine whether you are on track or not. This can lead to unwanted and unneeded discouragement! Your journey will differ so much from others even though we end with similar results! Good luck and stay positive! Strive for better health!

well, like TMF, at around 4 weeks was when my port stopped being tender but i will be healing (my mental change) for the rest of my life to a better way of thinking from insecure/weepy to want to attitude..probably not the answer you all wanted but its the one i wanted to express.
