Ginger1217 reacted to _Kate_ in Back to work. How soon?
Congrats on the surgery!
I was off work for four weeks and should have really stayed off six. I do have a stressful job which involves being in and out of the car a few times a day but I didn't really think I would be so exhausted even in week four. I have a feeling if I had had a desk job I would have been as tired. Be careful with yourself, it's very early days.
When I have my Tummy Tuck etc I am having six weeks off!!

Wait a few days before stepping on the scale. Your body needs time to adjust to everything it's been through.

Ginger1217 got a reaction from southernbelle256 in "Coming out"
I understand. The only person that knows about me in my family is my husband. The rest of them just think I'm sick. My surgery was Thursday December 17. For some reason I feel bad I could never keep weight off.

I came out on Facebook yesterday after months of being as vague as possible. I'm so glad I did. Life is a lot less awkward:)

Completely common. It is the excess fluids they gave you and swelling. May take up around 7-10 days for that to calm down and loss to start showing (not to mention your body is trying to catch up from the quick 30 pounds you lost). Try to stay off the scale the first week.
