Back to work

Jun 14, 2010

After almost 5 weeks off from work since my surgery, I worked my first 2 shifts this weekend. Saturday I got up and did my Walk Away the Pounds vid before work, and I maintained fairly high energy for the 12 hrs. I made sure I took frequent "watering breaks" and ate about every 3 hours. This was easy because my coworkers knew what type of surgery I had and they were very sensitive to my needs. But let me tell you, I was wiped out by the time I got home and sat still for e few minutes. I was too exhausted to exercise Sunday morning but wasn't too hard on myself about that. I was tired all day Sunday at work. My coworkers were sooo good to me, gave me an easy assignment, didn't want me to lift, offered to pick up any slack for me. (I love those girls!) Overall it went well.

Ok, vanity alert!!! Everyone I saw told me how good I looked! People from other departments who hadn't realized I was gone until I was back kept telling me how different I looked. My coworkers hugged me when they saw me and said, "girl we can fit our arms all the way around your waist!" WHAT?!! REALLY??!! I know what the scale says but I personally hadn't noticed the difference as much as they did! That made me feel good! I love my RNY!!
