NSV the first day back at work

[momx5 0]

Today is my first day back at work since being banded on 8/01. I never realized all the pushing and pulling I did (I just have a desk job) so my port area is a little sore. BUT....I put on my nice pants this morning and the hardly fit me. I mean I have to make sure they are not going to fall as I walked down the hall. I can feel the sliding down. Holy Crap that was fast. I am going to have to get them altered pronto because I am not ready to be new clothes just yet. But what a NSV (non - scale victory):thumbup:

Hey Claudine, congratulations on getting back to work. i was banded on the 4th and went back Wed night. i was so dizzy, and weakish. how are you feeling that way? I worked two nights but asked for tomorrow night off because i just need a couple more days. I work in a busy ER and there is lots of lifting, pushing and running :sad:

About the port site. Mine is pretty tender yet. I wear scrubs that are drawsting and can make them looser, however they are a bit scratchy and needed to wear a T-shirt tucked in so that they did rub so much.

I really need more energy though.

Good job to you! Glad its going well!

Claudine - WTG! Woo Hoo! I have been finding the same thing with my clothes, the hope was to get through this winter without having to spend much on new clothes. I don't know if that will happen or not, not a bad thing though!

I went to LB and got two pair of work pants for 1/2 off the 1/2 off price. I bought them in a size down and hope they will be good for a few months! I met a gal at the doc office on Thursday and she goes to Ross and the Goodwill for her clothes, she has dropped 2 sizes in the last 3 months! Crazy. Anyway, ideas for clothes if anybody needs them!
