Thank you everyone !!! I took all your advice! I pressed on with my chores laundry, dinner for my family and even cleaned out some draws and a closet (YAY). Watched Flight with Denzel W. , got addicted to Scandal on Netflix, went to the hair salon and I did some shopping , I did one row at the outlet mall with my BFF yesterday it was so nice out! All in all my days have been fuller and I am feeling less sore each day. Thanks again for your input!!

I was banded about a year ago and it seems like such a long time ago. I remember being very excited to not have to do anything...I watched the "crappy" tv that I never get to watch and spent time knitting--which I don't get work work on for very long at a time. I also took walks around Walmart during the day--not a lot of people there at that time. :)

I was bored out of my mind as well. I blogged a lot or stayed on these boards. I watched TV or just slept because TV was driving me nuts as well :(. Good luck

I didn't get time to get bored. I was cooking and cleaning from day one and running my business from home. I didn't do any heavy lifting and it was a week before I got in my car and drove myself to the supermarket.

Those were the worst! But my doctor was explaining to me how those intentionally make you hungry so I avoided them and the food network at all costs!
