Hey There, Hang in there... Remember why you did this.... One thing I've learned the hard way is that you can't be everything to everyone else because if you do this you become nothing to yourself.....That will bring back all the negativity. Overwhelming yourself with everything in not the solution....Do what you can at work, at home....Don't put yourself last......Are there any support groups in your area? Hang in there and remember if the problems that surround you have a solution consider yourself lucky because the things that have no solutions and have no answers are the things that should truly worry us.... Good Luck...

Hi There, You are not alone...You are protected by the government...HIPPA protects you in this case. All your medical information is confidential and protected by law. You do not need to tell anyone what you do or don't do. If that is what you had to do to get time off work (don't sweat it.) It is my experience that people at work are rarely happy over these things...The ulcer story probably will get you more sympathy than the weightloss one..... I also used the ulcer/hernia story..... and it has worked wonders..... I had my surgery 10/13/05 and I've lost 53 pounds...and my husband's family is like "that ulcer operation" got you of on ther right foot...and I just smile..and say don't hate the player baby..hate the game :0) Good Luck...
