Re: Heading to Week 3
Well done Lynda, so pleased you are getting off the painkillers, going to the shop and well done with Slimming World - something positive with a goal. I was only allowed to ditch the crutches when I went for my 6 week check up but I have found that I do need my stick especially when walking for any distance. Don't rush it, better being safe than sorry.

Re: Heading to Week 3
Hi Linda, just found your threat. I'm glad your surgery went well, mine too. I am also on crutches, and I don't mind. So we finally got the surgeries behind us
. They stopped my blood thinning shots after 14 days, and I never got the socks. Today I weight myself, same weight as last month. I faithfully do my physio exercises every day, just have problems with the abduction(?). Slow and easy does it. Hope we'll run around a few months down the road. Good luck with your recovery, and let's have lots of snoozes.

Hiya Everyone, I have just been to work for 3 hours this afternoon, I know its not quite 4 weeks but i was only serving customers in the Charity Shop where i am a volunteer. It made me feel so much better getting back with the girls in the shop and having our tea and biccies, (i am one of the young ones)We have a high chair behind the till and a grabber and i was not on my own either. Plus i only spent £4. I will be careful. PROMISE

Re: work
Sounds like the right approach! Easing into new activity will work.
So glad you were able to get out and back in the swing of things. Getting back your social life is really motivating!

Re: work
I'll say........nice to have a place like that to go back too. I go in to work to pick up old paystubs and say hi and they are chasin me outta there. Their idea is that since the doc gave me the full 6 month package deal and that it will all be covered then I really should take advantage of it and stay away and work on healing.......I am already goin stir crazy....lol...maybe I will go see if I can volunteer someplace out here......I think we have a large yard sale type place that is opened all summer....maybe I will try t hat..lol
Enjoy your time with the girls.
