NolzGirl 16 Posted August 24, 2017 I KNOW that everyone is different and there are a lot of different things that can be factored in.... but how long were you out of work after surgery? I have a very laid back, No stress desk job... but I don't get paid if I'm not here... just trying to plan...Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashleey921 62 Posted August 25, 2017 There may not be any post op over here since this is for september 2017 sleevers. But I asked this same question and most ppl have said 1-2 weeks. It really just depends on you of course. But the most popular answer from those with the same type of job said 1-2 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Callisto 79 Posted September 2, 2017 I told my boss 10 days no work, and then I will do paperwork from home (there is tons of it do) and hopefully I can get through that ok and then see where I am at and if I can do more - like travel in the car. I am nervous about this also. I have time to take off but basically my bosses rely on me working to make them money. I asked this question also because I did not know if I was being realistic about it or not. I am just praying for no complications! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kjfultz1 7 Posted September 9, 2017 I work (Telework) from home 4 days a week and the only time I took off was for the three days that I was in the hospital. The only thing you need to take into consideration is that this surgery zaps your energy significantly, so beware.Sent from my SM-N920V using BariatricPal mobile app 1 Callisto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
