Elana,
No! You are not weak. It is actually quite strong and commendable to take care of yourself in this way - not everyone can do so. Maybe you will be ready to take on a full time job, but it is wise to start part-time at first until you adjust. It is a big adjustment, physically and mentally. And your T is right - it is their responsiblity to make sure the work gets done. Not something you need to worry about at all. Well done!

Congrats on the new job!!
 I agree with Darkrunner. It's not weakness at all, quite the opposite in fact, takes strength, insight, and wisdom to know what is working and what is not. It is a matter of taking care of yourself and doing what feels right to you. It is great you have gotten into this new position and like what you are doing; overdoing it is to your detriment. You may find later you want to take on more once you've adjusted but it is a big change to jump into 40 hours. I commend you for wanting to make sure there is balance and to not get overwhelmed. They will find someone to pick up the additional work and to fill the vacant position, no worries there. Focus on what is best for you to maintain your balance.
