Time off after surgery

I have a desk job and had taken a week off but there was no way in heck I could go back. I ended up taking an additional week off and was very tired and it was rough. 3 weeks would have been ideal for me. I was very tired for about 6 weeks. Plus it is a learning curve to living with your new diet etc.
Good luck!
I only planned to take one week off, had complications and ended up being off almost three months.
