recovery time

hi all was just wondering what the recovery time was after a band xxx

Hi. I had my band fitted last Tuesday so 9 days ago. I know everyone is different but yesterday was the 1st day I felt almost back to normal. I know in my job (nurse) working 12 hour shifts, I wouldn't manage just yet. I can however look after my 4 year old and get to the shops etc. I think it's mainly due to the lack calories due to the fluid only regime for the 2 weeks post op. I'm taking in about 500 a day. But as I mentioned everyone is different and most people on here manage to go back to work after a week.

I agree with macy everyone is different. from day 3 i could quite comfortably look after my 2 year old and go to the shops was back in work after one week (also a nurse). best to take it a day at a time and see how you feels yourself
