aloha - what about if you try to sell Pampered Chef or tupperware or Avon or other products from home? There are lots of new alternatives like Southern Living and all that...you might try an eBay business from home or something - just a few suggestions

good luck - chin up - get motivated, success is the best revenge! go... gooooo... Gooooooooooooooooooooo!

Remember that the best way to combat stress is to take care of your body. Eating well, exercising, and getting enough rest really can have HUGE impact on your ability to cope with stress.

I do work from home--but in a sort of small niche (educational publishing). It's worked out really well for me. I wasn't always in this field--but parlayed my education and experience into a job that has allowed me to be at home with my kids. PM me if you want to talk about it--sometimes fresh eyes can help you think of things to do with your background that hadn't occurred to you.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
