I am a teacher (4th-6th) grade English, Social Studies and Keyboarding. I dreamed of being a stay a home mom, so I envy you! I didn't find peace until my boys were old enough to come to school with me. Next year, my oldest will be in my class. Should be interesting. I love teaching.

Nursing would be my next choice of career. I'd like day surgery, like my step mom works. The money is fantastic.

Way to go on being a stay at home mom!!!

I am an RN and work full-time as a critical care educator in a large university hospital teaching RNs to work in ICUs. I am adjunct faculty to several colleges and universities and mentor 8 graduate students a year. To cap it off, I'm in a full-time PhD program with a specialization in adult education. I completed stages one and two and am now a doctoral candidate and move onto the dissertation. I need more hours in the day. LOL.

I am a CA by profession but now my husband and I own a fine dining restaurant in cottage country, we live and work in the same building. He is a professional chef........argggghhhh....so hard, this is such an unsafe environment for me.

I also own a small ladies fitness centre based on the Curves concept....it hasn't help me to lose any weight because until now I haven't been able to change my eating habits.....however, it has kept me from expanding..it does help me to maintain my current weight.

      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.
