First day...

Today is my first day back at work since surgery, does any one have any suggestions? I normally stand on my feet for 10 hours a day, but today I only work half a day. I normally eat fried foods. Today I know that I cannot. I normally am not nervous, but today I am. Anyone have any suggestions?? Melissa

Melissa, No suggestions, but my prayers and best wishes are with you. I'll bet you will do great. Sherr

Sherr, Thank you for the prayers. Today was not as bad as I thought it would be. I was really tired when I first got home and sore, but I am sure that will get better as the week goes on. Melissa

My first day back will be next Monday and I'm worried that I won't have the energy to sustain my day in front of my students. I'm already planning ahead on how to arrange my meals for the day. I know that my protein drink doesn't make me dump or run to the bathroom...so I'll take that with me for my midday meal and have it as an early breakfast. I'll wait for lunch till I get home around 2pm and then worry about dinner and trying new foods until my family is having dinner. Once I'm home for the night, if something doesn't agree with me, at least I don't have to worry about being sick at work. I'm nervous too...but I'm planning ahead...I hope it helps me make it through my days. I hope it helps you make it through your days. Best wishes, Maria
