Recovering and returning back to work
RNY on 10/29/12
I have been reading alot of posts here about how long it has taken to recover and regain energy. I am worried because I am thinking I will be able to return back to work in 2 weeks. My job does not require any lifting, but it does require physical activity, and I know my boss will not be patient. I know everyone is different, am I kidding myself thinking I will be able to return to work so quickly?

I work a very active job. I walk/run about three to five miles a day. Push motorcycles, quads, load and unload trucks...very physical. I was back to work in two weeks. I took it fairly easy, didn't over do it, but never had a problem. Like you said, everyone is different. Communicate well with your body.

Thanks for responding:) I am just worried I won't have the energy because of the limitations post-op, and then the worry of dehydration. I am gonna try and stay focused on a positive outcome:)
