Don't Overdo It!

Im one week out. Really pushed myself physically yesterday with shopping, putting up Christmas tree, housework, etc. Well, I really paid for it last night, waking up with soreness and pain in the belly area. So I guess when they say rest, they mean it! Don't push yourselves too hard - give your body time to heal. :)

I second your post! I am one week out as well and WAY overdid it this past weekend with Christmas Shopping, Church, Grocery Shopping, etc. I am really sore today!

I am 1.5 weeks out and I too overdid it. I felt like I could do whatever, but am definitely paying for it today. Rest is on the menu for today.

Tomorrow is 1 week out for me and went to the DMV to get my license renewed. Even though I sat most of the time waiting (2 hours). I was still wiped out . Listen to your body and rest when it needs you to .

I am one week out too, I almost went back to work today :blink: I decided to take days this week since I have been getting tired in the late afternoons. I started driving on Saturday and picked up my kids from school today. I have definitely given my fair share to the cyber sales since Friday! I have started putting up indoor decorations, but I know you can definitely go backwards really fast, so I am taking it slow. I go back to work on Thursday. I work at a school and get out for Christmas break on December 20 and will be off until January 7. I know it will be a very busy 3 weeks!

Wed I'll be 3weeks out and yes I still can over do it! My 2nd week I over did it n just rested the whole week. Did u know it takes a year for ur insides to fully heal? So be careful all. Resting as much as I can till I go back to work in 2weeks :-)

Today I was all Walmart shopping for 2 hours & felt tired after. Guess my body still getting used to this. Man, best choice I ever made. Beat luck to everyone!
