Hi,
I am just curious how you all have found the recovery time to be after your sleeve surgery. Generally, they say no bending or lifting for about 2 weeks. Is this pretty accurate? I know they want you up and walking pretty soon after the procedure, but when can you add in a bit more strenuous activities? Like walking a dog, cleaning, and so on?
How soon can one return to work? My job is pretty sedentary, as I'm a receptionist. So, I requested 2 weeks off. I hope by then I will feel well enough to return to normal life. I am having my surgery on April 18th, but I do have some activities planned in early May that involve standing and some walking. But that will be almost 3 weeks out, so I should be alright for that.
What was your recovery like? What was the hardest part? Thanks for any advice and tips on how to make the best of the recovery and getting back to normal activities.
