I am scheduled on June 18,2010. I am scheduled to go back to work on July 6th. After reading so many peoples stories now I am freaked out that I will be going back to soon. I am also starting to worry that I did not lose enough weight in order for it to look right. I am 5'5" and weigh 157 lbs.

From what I hear if you have a desk job you may go back after 2 wks..you'll have to judge by your recovery..
I think you should be fine. I am on day 17 right now and I feel totally fine. But, everyone is different........I am a stay at home mom of 3 so I am pretty active. I am tired at the end of the day, but fine really.
Thanks for info. I am scheduled for next Friday and starting to get a little nervous.
I had surgery May 14 and went back two weeks later on the 27th with no problems. I have a desk job though. I am also 5'5 and now 157lbs after tummy tuck. You will be fine! Oh I am also in Houston! LOL Email me if you have any questions and good luck! mcarroll97@hotmail.com
How do you feel now? Are you able stand up all the way? I think I am freaking myself out by reading what some of these people have to say!! Do you mind me asking how many pounds the Dr took off of you when he did the surgery?
I had my surgery May 21st and was back to work June 1st....so that is 11 days post op. I did just fine. I have to wear jeans to work, and I work 12 hour days. I began to swell a little and be uncomfortable buttoning my pants towards the end of the work day. BUT I managed and I believe you can too! No one suspected I had surgery, I was able to fit in my pre-surgery pants WITH my binder on. I looked a little fat but I didnt want to take any more time off work. You can do it girl.
Congrats on your surgery. Mine is scheduled for next Friday and so I am starting to get very nervous. How long did it take you to stand up staight?
