BACK TO WORK
Linda, I went back after 2 eeeks too and completely exhausted. It is normal. We have to do what we have to do and we are stronger for it. Big problem for me with being at work is getting all my meals and water in. Take it easy and go to bed early. No shame in that.

Glad to hear you are doing well! I didn't have complications like you did, but I get having low energy. Technically its mid morning, so my surgery was 4 weeks ago today, and I still get drained easily.
Yes, give yourself a break, we all heal at different rates. Great job on the weight loss so far.
Take care.

Hey Amanda,
I was thinking of you and wondering how you are doing - 3 weeks today for me. I know it gets better each day and even today compared to Monday is much better. I keep being told that I look pale. I need some sun or darker foundation (lol).
Send me a P.M. and give me an update. I hope you are well and wish you continued success.
Linda
