Quick FAQs - Weight Loss Surgery - How Long Before Returning to Work? |

Frequently Asked Questions - How long were you off work after weight loss surgery? The length of time off work post-surgery is going to vary on your ability to recover and any effects of medications you are taking.
When I began researching weight loss surgery types, I read many accounts and watched lots of videos over how quickly people recovered from weight loss surgery. Some had extraordinary recoveries and were back at work within 3 or 4 days, others were not able to return to work for 4 weeks. I was back at work on day 10 post-op. I have a desk job that does not require heavy lifting, squatting or bending. I would recommend wearing the abdominal binder if the hospital gives you one. I wore mine everyday for 4 weeks post op. If you like/dislike my videos, please thumb up or down, and leave a comment about how I could improve the content. Your input helps me become a better Youtuber. :-) Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve!
