I don't know what state you are in but you could file a stress claim under workers comp..I'm a work comp defense attorney in California and get psyche cases all the time, but our state may have different rules. See an attorney; most give free consultations.

I took 6 days off work, luckily had no complications post op and was able to keep up with my work load including lots of driving and carrying my files.

I'm just a week post op so I sent my mom and husband to a restaurant. i had to hear about every morsel they ate upon their return. Surprisingly, that didn't bother me as much as expected.

I'll just say it bluntly. You need to get your head screwed on straight and forget about this other man. The man you have has put up with you for 21 years. You took vows to this man and he to you. You know that what you are doing is wrong; so stop it!

I love my sister and she has been wonderfully supportive -- even flew in from Knoxville for my surgery. But when I told her I was headed towards size 10s, she blurted out, "but that's what I wear!" She has always been the small sister; I was always the largest.
Guess what sister, I'm buying some 10s for the next time I see you (Christmas)!

Go for a long walk and cuss them out the entire time you are gone. Get creative, use gestures, make up really hideous names for them and imagine them all in really humiliating situations. Then go to the mall and pick out all the styles of clothing o want to wear when you lose twenty, thirty, forty pounds and then cuss them some more.
You'll feel much better.

I'm November 21 in So Cal...a week before Thanksgiving and 2 weeks before my birthday! But have only been at my "new" job for 4 months so I had to schedule it near holiday since I don't have much accrued vacation time.

Why couldn't they have prayed for me when I was eating all those pepperoni pizzas?

I am 2 1/2 weeks post-op. I am down 36 or 37 pounds. My boyfriend said that he can really notice a difference in my face, but I haven't noticed anything myself. I haven't left my apartment since surgery & have limited my wardrobe to pajama or yoga pants. Today I decided to venture out because my puppy ran out of treats last night. I decided to make myself presentable for the general public. That's when I got not 1 but 3 surprises. Surprise #1 my jeans were loose at the waste! I had to roll them at the waist once so they wouldn't fall down. Surprise #2 I put on my shoes & THEY were loose! I didn't realize that my feet had gotten fat too! I got to my car & that was where I got Surprise #3. I usually have my car seat moved all the way back so that I can fit in the seat belt & not have the steering wheel sticking in my stomach. I can always tell when my boyfriend has used my car because when I get in I am all smooshed up & have to readjust the seat & the wheel. Today when I got in I could tell that he had used my car, but I only needed to move the seat back about 2 inches. I am officially shrinking! The scale hasn't moved in the past few days so, I really needed today. What a great day of surprises. I look forward to many more to come!
