Recently my job flipped 230 employees life around by doing ahuge lay off and moving some of us around.

They put me on pms due to my seniority. I then had to think about me, my family and my safety. (I take the train to/from work, train at 2am in Chicago is very dangerous!)

I don't have babysitter, our life got flipped upside down.

I just got a call yesterday, offered job position but requires business dress up clothes!

I have non! I have worked in nursing for years and years, so I never purchased business clothes with my new body. I start in 2 weeks and I have no money to buy a huge wardrobe!!!!! I kept using the same size 12 dress to every interview, even the 2nd interview for this position!

If anyone is selling on ebay please send me links, if anyone is giving away or swapping, please let me know!

I am also thinking of going to thrift shop and hopefully find some pieces!!

Thank You!

I started taking Zoloft and Xanax 3months after my surgery due to my friend dying since then additional 6 people in my life passed on, I now suffer from post traumatic plus Wls and my mind unable to catch up with me and life!!!! I'm on my way to an interview and soooo sad I hope I don't blow it! So much has happened, it takes over my mind

Hey sweetie' date=' you know I'm here if you need anything...I mean that. I have been seeing a therapist every 2 week's since a month pre-op. She is helping me deal with the roller coaster of feelings and helping me resolve my issues with food. I HIGHLY recommend having someone completely unbiased to talk to. ((Hugs)) hang in there![/quote']

Do u go to the psych dr you went for your preop? Maybe I should make an appt

I am so get what you are saying. Just my experience is that following the "rules" of Protein first' date=' small but frequent meals, and keeping simple carbs/sugars out of your diet helps so much with the desire to eat. I am not even sure it was hunger, more like just wanting to eat - that feeling like I was starving I think was in my head more then my body.

I am still shocked that I can fit an entire meal on a tea plate, and the food doesn't even touch.... I notice that when I use regular size plates I might feel more deprived or rather that I "need" more food. I hate to call it hunger because i don't trust that word entirely....lol

Anyway, hang in there, lots of changes, both mental and physical. I have just experienced that my behavior - ways of eating - influences this "hunger" alot.

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!! You both hit on the nail!!!! I have been on Zoloft and Xanax for some months and even upped my dosage cause it gets worse and worse!

Any suggestions? There is so much to deal with! Help this is .... Ahhh! Lol sorry but I don't believe I look thin as people say, I feel fat and ugly all over again!

Yes they can! I go inside and ask and they fix it right up! I have 2-3 a week (I am pre-sleeve) it's soooo good.

thank you!!!!!!! I need a change of yummy treaty type of drinks!

I went to their nutrition facts - for a small SF vanilla iced coffee - 60 calories, 1 gram Protein, 5 grams of fat, 8 carbs.

that's not tooo bad for a small treat, insteam of cream maybe they can put skim milk? Do they do that at McDonalds?
