ButterflyInProgress

I am a Photographer, have been for 15 years. Shooting weddings have killed me for years. I literally feel like I got hit by a truck the next 3 days after! I am in the process of all the hoop jumping to have my surgery and I am wondering if any photographers out there had surgery and how long it was before you went back into wedding photographer mode? I am trying to decide when to do my surgery. If a month is going to be long enough for my body to feel good enough for that full of a day. On one hand I will hopefully have a little (or a lot) less weight and won't have to worry so much about my diabetic issues that a full photography day gives me. I am 286 right now and 5'3-4" (depending on who measures me lol). Thank you!
