I am a teacher too! I had my surgery 1 day after you, and will be going back to work next week after a spring break recovery! It will be challenging to get in a routine and on a schedule, but it will be worth it! I plan to eat at my desk, not in the lounge. The smells of things really are bothering me at this point. Also, I plan to start the day with a protein supplement to help me have energy. I think just being prepared and taking time for yourself is the key - I know that is easier said that done in the classroom!! Good luck!
