First time in 3 months I've worn tights (or stockings, for sqad), first time I've set an alarm, first time I've properly had to use my brain in 3 months.

Work Dress is now too big - yeh!
Forgot computer passwords - heh!
But everyone so sweet, welcoming, caring and pleased to see me back.

So what did I do when I got home at 1.30 - yeh!
I sat in the garden and cried.

Is this weird? Is this hormones (or lack thereof), or just the milk of human kindness making me emotional?

Ah Sal....xxx...coz you're a luvverly wumman !!!
It could be a combination of both salla.
Congrats on the weight loss :)
Just a release of emotions I would think Salla. You are back to normal (well as normal as you can be) after a very stressful period in your life and relief often brings tears.

Take care

12 lbs and counting.....

Helluva way to do it, but every cloud has a silver wotsit :-)
Many years ago when I had my lung operation I came out of hospital a stone lighter and a dress size smaller after just one week. I could ill afford to lose it at that time though as my starting weight was only 7st 11lb
Prob a bit of both Salla,
I can cope with anything thrown at me..........until people start being nice to me, thats when I crack up. X
It's quite an eventful day by anyone's standards! There's no right or wrong after what you've been through, get a glass of something in your hand, enjoy the late afternoon sunshine and enjoy the warmth of the sun on you face!
ist day back after a long time is the worst, it will get better, a wee bubble does no one any harm, :)
glad you first day back went well salla.

A wee bubble - I like that !!
Better than a massive blubber.

I feel daft, it's all in all a happy event. Time was I thought I may not make it back. And such lovely colleagues.

Got a glass of red. Just the one mind - work tomorrow. :-)
its only when you go back to '' normal life'' you realise how different things may have been, and so many people will say '' oh you are so lucky'' but the trauma of waiting for results and major surgery are life changing.
I remember when I got back home with my first daughter (47 years ago) I sobbed. I still don't know why I did, emotions (and hormones) are very strange things. It's so nice to know you are improving and getting back to normal. Sending my best wishes to you. xx

Thank you, all of you.

I have been through a range of emotions yes, but I do still consider myself lucky. Stage 1c ovarian is lucky. Seriously.
Lucky to be caught that soon, at that stage.
Lucky to be kept under surveillance.
Lucky to be cared for so well.
I didn't know anything about you having major surgery, but it sounds as though you've been through a lot and then a build-up of going back to work. No wonder you needed a bit of stress release. I hope everything goes well now x
So glad your life is returning to normal, enjoy, love and hugs

Today, going back to work, albeit a 'phased return' (i.e. part-time) was such a big thing. I don't think I realised that til I got home.
Salla, bless you, it is because you are a lovely warm lady. Well done you xx
My very best wishes to you Bbb for the future x
Well done on the weight loss Salla, that's fantastic!

I remember feeling similar to you when I returned to work after a long absence with depression. Give it a couple of more days and you'll feel like you've never been away :o)
Big day for you. Only natural that you would react. Tears are an emotional release.
All the best for the future.
