    How lovely, you deserve it.  How are you doing ?  I'm just over 2 weeks and feeling great.  On one crutch indoors. Going swimming later.  Did well at physio yesterday.  Still having problems sleeping but apart from that I'm feeling lucky. Xx

      Hi Jennifer, I'm doing really well Thanks. I'm quite pleased with myself to be honest. I really didn't think I'd be able to do the things I'm doing at 2 weeks. I'm also down to 1 crutch but my 1st physio is next Weds (3 weeks post-op). I've been doing my exercises religiously & yes, the whole sleeping on the back thing is vile but remember the post from Kate that I re-posted - it doesn't matter, we are not ruled by the clock whilst we recover so you can sleep during the day. Best wishes x

      How are you Chloe? I'm great. I'm still looking at the Hotel Chocolat web site & can't decide what to order! I've narrowed it down to 3 boxes but I can't decide so I might have all 3! X

      Hi Fernlady I had been doing really well, managing to stand still completely unaided and in very little pain - until I sneezed this afternoon (see separate post).  It's definitely back on the pain meds tonight and I'll see how I am tomorrow.

      On to more important subjects - chocolate, I think the answer is - if you can't decide have all 3! Go on spoil yourself, you deserve it👍

      I've just read your sneezing post & it made me really laugh, sorry I know it's not funny! I've sneezed & never felt a thing, coughing is a different matter though! I've ordered my chocolates now - 3 boxes, I couldn't decide! I lost 2 stone before my op on Slimming World but these last 2 weeks I've just eaten what I wanted. I'm starting SW again next Monday so all 3 boxes have got to be eaten before then & they're not being delivered until Fri! X

      No worries - I thought the response was funny too.

      Enjoy your chocolates.

    Excellent, go you!!! From what I've read through many posts, getting through the 2 week period post THR is a milestone. Enjoy biggrin

    I think I treated myself to too many crumpets while off - still trying to loose the weight ! Xx
