Update!!! I Finally Got A Job!!!



Recommended Posts

Well after the long search i have finally found a job. Some of you may remeber i was complaining that i thought i was being judged on my weight. Well this job was actually a hard job for someone to get. I had to do a phone interview, then a personal interview with 4 executives...and then i had to have a hair sample drug test and background check. I was so excited to hear that they chose me.

I am working at UGS in st louis. www.ugs.com

I do phone work, mainly gather info for the company to use.

Mon-Fri...8-5 and pays good!

So point of my story is that for those of you who think they are judging on weight...just stick in there SOMETHING will come up...just might take some time!

Good luck all of you!

That is awesome news. I checked out the website - I have no idea what any of that meant, but it looked cool!

You must feel like the weight of the world is off your shoulders.

Congratulations

lol...i know the website looks crazy...its a company that makes the software that most of you who work in major companies use. They make the software that BOEING uses to create their jets.

Fun huh?!?!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
