Two Awesome Things



Recommended Posts

Hey there QueenBee.......

Nope, unfortunately we wont be co-workers. I am working on an account for Marvel Comics. I asked if I could dress up like Wonder Woman and take calls, but that didn't go over too good....sorta was told to wait till Halloween for that B) That would be sweet though if we could have been co workers~ The last time I worked at a call center it was for Empire BlueCross BlueShield. We had just moved our corporate head quarters to the World Trade Center in NYC. I had to call people there all the time...our Fraud and Abuse center was there....Once the World Trade Center wasn't there any more, the displaced workers that survived had to be farmed out to other locations. We got I think 30 workers from the Trade Center. We lost 9 employees. Its going to be weird working in a call center again. Im looking forward to it though. I haven't worked in 7 months.....I haven't worked full time in ohhh SIX years!!!

Hi Hope,

CONGRATS to you.....I need to get to support group,I had a fill three weeks ago, and I haven't lost a pound.

I am eating like a pig, and can't get motivated. I am going to the doctor on Tuesday. I am so glad you are doing well. Keep up the great work.

4 sizes and a job and a trip scoped out to Italy. Life is good. A 16 has got to be just thrilling for you! Congratulations - keep up the good work! Gotta say I love the attitude!

I have to say that i hate you (JUST KIDDING) I am sooo jealous, though. I don't think my left calf would fit in the waist of a size 16!! A job? I would SO love a job...but I have three kids, 2,3 and 8 (the hubby doesn't want me to get a job yet- I don't think we could afford childcare!) Italy, too?! Girl, I want to be you!!!!

Congrats and keep up the good work & positive attitude!!

Have to say working for Marvel Comics is much better than working for a bank or an insurance company! Sorry to hear about the losses you suffered from 9/11 - can't imagine what it was like for you.

Best wishes to you!!

Cheri~ All I gotta say girl is be careful what ya wish for ~ it aint easy being me~:eek: You will get there too 16 is an awesome accomplishment and I am very proud of it, but it was like what, six-seven months for me to get there...Give yourself time and stick to it....You will get there...and as far as Italy is concerned, thats a LOOOOONG RANGE goal!! hehehehe I wanna get there within two years~

QueenBee...thanks for your condolences...they were good people. I was about 60 miles away from the city that day not feeling an ounce of saftey, but surely safer than some people were that day....They are missed~

The job is actually pretty cool! I am going to be trainned on several different lines of business...which is good cause I took like 4-5 calls today and was on the phones for 7 hours!!! Its nice because I am still technically in trainning.....but I need more stimulation than that!!! I was able to do some mail orders too, so that wasn't toooo bad. We will be handeling the account for Triangle Magazines...Its an "alternative" lifestyle magazine with several different publications like Out Magazine, and a few others I cant remember the names to....The Advocate is another....I heard them quite often today as I just sat there listening to the other BUSY reps around me....:D Wish I would have been busy~ One day I guess, one day...shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth~

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
