First day back to work!

Well I messed up!! 11 hours on my first day back and I do nails for a living! I guess I forgot I sit forward all day! I came home and cried from being so sore and tired!! Much shorter day tomorrow, but another long one Thursday! I haven't felt good these 2 post op weeks! Can't get all my fluids and protein in and when I try to eat anything soft or puréed I end up feeling sick after a bite or two! Someone remind me why I did this again?

Oh honey it gets better. I lost my job the day before surgery. It was a blessing because I couldn't get out of bed for 6-7 weeks. Take it easy and do the best you can. I never got everything in either.

I'm 3 months out and 65lbs down but I sure did regret it for a long time.

Thank you so much! I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way! I just want to feel better!! I'm only 2 weeks out so I guess I need to give it more time!!

Me too. Today was my first day back and I'm two weeks out. I was so nauseated this morning and tired and in pain. I had to run a couple of errands after work and I overdid it. I had to take pain medicine. It was nice to see my friends at work again though. It will get better. I think I need to force myself to work though because I am feeling like I want life to be normal again. Work is the most normal. Can get right now aside frm eating with my friends. Hang in there... We Can Do This lol

I went back to work yesterday and both days I made the mistake of sitting and leaning forward for an hour or so while I talked with a patient, and I could barely stand up afterwards. My belly was so sore. So I can't imagine doing that for 11 hours!!
