Thank you SO much!!! It really is tough to step back from a busy life and take it easy, but I'm finding it is absolutely necessary. I'm also a full-time teacher, so I'm hoping to have this period of malnutrition taken care of before heading back into my classroom. I love this forum...amazing to see all the positive energy.
I'm in the same boat...I just got my band last Wednesday and know I need to recover from surgery before I get ideas of grandeur for working out. I'm looking forward to my 2-week post-op appointment to see if I get the OK from my surgeon to start hitting the pavement again.
...and terrified that I'm not felling 70%! HA! I know I need to give this time, but I have some tightness on my right side, as well as slowly moving from clear liquid diet to full liquids. My husband and I have a 4-year old boy, a 5 1/2 year o,d English Setter, and a 10-month English Setter. Needless to say, we have a busy household and me being "out-for-the-count" for more then 4 or 5 days is proving a challenge!
