RN-I've worked several places in the hospital but have been working in the ICU for the last 3 years. It's hard to beat 3 12 hour shifts a week.

I thought I replied earlier but don't see it so I must be having a brain freeze!

Anyway, after jumping ship from the corporate world of Fortune 500 companies, I packed up my stuff and moved my son and I to Lake Oswego, Oregon where I am the "Welcome Wagon" lady. That's right folks, the Welcome Wagon lady.

Instead of meeting with Mr. CEO or CFO at their fortune 500 company, I now meet with Dave at Dave's Auto Body. I love what I do!

No more suits, pumps and pearls for me!!!!

I'm a county social worker in ND working with elderly and disabled (mostly traumatic brain injuries) adults to keep them at home with community services rather than nursing homes. My favorite cases are hospice, such a sacred time in life and gift to be welcomed into a family's life during this journey. Banded 11/6/07.

I'm an EA for the Engineering department at Verizon.

I've been here for like 11 years.. before this I was a waitress which kept me trim. LOL. I got my business degree in 05', and after I get this surgery (hopefully) I plan to lose the weight and move up in the company. I don't want to start a new job and then get the surgery..

DISCLAIMER: If anybody is not happy with their Verizon Cell phone, there's nothing I can do because they are their own separate company. My department handles FIOS. LOL

      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.
