aloha - what about if you try to sell Pampered Chef or tupperware or Avon or other products from home? There are lots of new alternatives like Southern Living and all that...you might try an eBay business from home or something - just a few suggestions

good luck - chin up - get motivated, success is the best revenge! go... gooooo... Gooooooooooooooooooooo!

Remember that the best way to combat stress is to take care of your body. Eating well, exercising, and getting enough rest really can have HUGE impact on your ability to cope with stress.

I do work from home--but in a sort of small niche (educational publishing). It's worked out really well for me. I wasn't always in this field--but parlayed my education and experience into a job that has allowed me to be at home with my kids. PM me if you want to talk about it--sometimes fresh eyes can help you think of things to do with your background that hadn't occurred to you.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
