Give each other some support let me know sure that would be cool. whats ur email? I could have went back to work but my surgeon doesnt recommend anything less then the 2 weeks but I have been fine only the first few days but after no problems. Weight not moving though and I am walking, but losing inches I guess since I can fit stuff. I am going to the dollar store buy a measurement tape since the scale has stopped moving. Keep me posted on how you are doing 1 PrettyThick1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
