Hi everyone I'm returning to work tonight I'm 7 1/2 weeks post op. I'm quite excited but also have my fears.

I'm a Slimming World Consultant with 5 groups over different days. Im missing my members and need to take control of my own weight as I'm sure I will have gained a few pounds since my op.

The job involves carrying stock from my car to venue and setting up scales etc.

I still have restrictions in place for another 4 1/2 weeks so it's the bending that worries me.

I'm at physio this morning so will enquire about this but any input would be appreciated.

Is it safe to carry bags etc.

Sue x
