Finishing up my first week back at work!

OK! I did it! I decided before surgery that I would be back at work after 2 weeks. I had my surgery, open, on Aug 2nd and returned full-time on the 16th! I even went on a trip to Raleigh. (5.5 hour drive) for a day of training. (I did spend the night there.) And I felt great when I got back last night. Today, I am a little tired, but I am leaving half-day to go see my surgeon to get the rest of my staples out. I haven't been doing any exercise, but I tell you what, acting like everything is back to normal, seems to make it so! Sidenote: the conference provided lunch and omg! It was soooooooooo strange to pass on salad, extremely dark rich chocolate cake, rice. We had chicken cordon bleu and it took 'til everyone was finishing their ENTIRE MEAL that I had eaten in tiny bites my chicken, swiss cheese about 1/4 of the chicken! funny!

Glad to hear that things are going well. I find it funny now to watch my family eat and think how did I ever eat that much. It looks like they are eating so much. It's great to not feel hungry. I will be going back to work on Monday myself, although I am enjoying this life of leisure at home, I'm going to miss being able to relax and do what I want. Patty

Welcome back you seem to be doing great...keep it up Lisa
