Congratulations! Glad you are feeling up to returning to work!

I made sure I had my meals with me and just didn't make a big deal of it. I also tried to keep busy for lunch, running out to the store or taking a walk. I'm in a small office and the two women I work with did know what was going on, but others didn't.

Best of luck to you!!
