Welcome Back

To the real world that is - went to the doctor on Monday for my 6 week follow-up. He is happy with the way things have progressed and I'm cleared to return to work - with the sling, for four more weeks...but I can go slingless at home and when I drive and NO MORE WEDGE. But...I can't drive my car because it's stick...so I've had to trade cars with people - I miss my car =(. Yesterday I went to work...it's been exhausting...too much social interaction...I know - I'm a social worker...but to go from nothing to 100 people in one day...phew - I'm pooped. But I've made real efforts to look nice and bring food...I weighed in today 255 on the nose...I've been teeter tottering back and forth with this weight for a few weeks...but I feel a breakthrough. I did a ton of grocery shopping so I have great food in the house and my period is coming more and more regularly...so I think once that passes (showed up for my first day back at work) I will have a true loss. I just want to hit the 240's...it's been almost 2 years...I don't care how long it takes, or how many pounds come and go as long as they keep going and I keep being focused...

I can relate to your completely draining job. I am in the same field. Glad you were able to get back to work too bad you couldn't have worked in a little slower. Keep up the positive attitude. What is the saying ATTITUDE is everything. :-)
