Enough is Enough - I QUIT!



Recommended Posts

Psyche, I'm not leaving LBT again! Too many of you drag sappy tears out of my eyes with all the love. But it's with shock and exhilaration that I share with all of you, who have supported me in every aspect of my life over the years, that I just reached my lifetime achievement. I've been trapped in the corporate world for over 20 years, but my days are numbered.

Next Friday is my LAST DAY AS A FRIGGEN PARALEGAL!

I QUIT! I quit my job! Did I really say that? Yes, I did, I really, really did... I quit my job! Now you have to watch for the Slumber Buggy - it might just come through your town! I'm competing for a trip to New York City for a fully paid shopping spree in a limo with Kim, Slumber's owner, who is holding the hottest tickets to see The Producers on Broadway with an expense paid stay at the Waldorf Astoria for the highest September sales.

My job held me back from winning a sexy red boat, trips to Europe, wave runners, The Bahamas, etc. I made in 3 days what it takes me a month to make as a paralegal. I can't believe I own my own business, and I can't believe how easy and fun work can be.

Wish me luck, and baton down the hatches because Hurricane DeLarla is on the loose!

PARTY FOR A LIVING!!!

Quitting a job to pursue a career you love and being your own boss is a dream come true. I'm on Long Island and Manhattan in Sept. is VERY nice. The Waldorf Astoria is very classy and in a great location. With your drive and enthusiasm, you'll be sitting in that show, front and center. Congratulations.

      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.
