Wow all interesting jobs!! Great post in forum.

I am a chiropractor. I sold my practice (which consumed me night and day owning a business) to get in shape and finally lose weight. My excuse (one of many of them) was I didn't have "time" to work out and eat healthy. So I did something about that! I am currently working for a chiropractor 14 hours a week for some income. I LOVE WORKING for someone else, the stress of owning your own business is horrible! I had my surgery Dec 4 and down 34 pounds I am so pleased and I started working out again!

My days are very flexible so it gives me time to cook and workout. I do spend time on here chatting, texting and emailing with others about our surgeries, sharing experiences, recipes and our progress. This is my plan for one year to 18 months until I get to goal weight and at that point I will decide what I want to do with the rest of my life!! I know one thing for sure I am sure as hell going to enjoy it!!

Good luck to all of you!! I love hearing all your stories, a lot of them so inspiring!!

I am a coding and OASIS-C specialist working from home as a home healthcare auditor. Basically, I am privately contracted by home health agencies to review the work of their nurses and therapists to make sure they are paid as high as possible without being fraudulent under Medicare guidelines.

And now that I've put you to sleep...!

WOW

everyone has such exciting jobs!

Unfortunately, I just graduated college and am getting temp jobs but nothing permanent

I recently worked as a pharmacy technician, substitute for a high school math class, and as a receptionist. Nothing exciting and right now i'm out of a job, but at least this gives me time to really focus on myself and really spend time at the gym (really my life sucks at the moment, just trying to make myself feel better)

You should be proud of yourself. You are half way to your goal and you graduated college. The job will come in God's time. I can empathize with you, I am back in school (at 40 yrs) and I just did find a part time job with the post office after losing my job 2 years ago. Keep your head up and keep on trucking

You are on a great path....You are a college grad, you are making great contacts... stop thinking your life sucks... you have made the choice to have LB to take control of your life... this is HUGE... Embrace every pound and every inch lost...

Temp jobs a great..... think of all the contacts you are making and the different things you are learning and one day someone will look at your resume' and say.... Wow this girl is well rounded... Always be up for learning something new... and go into every interview thinking... These people need me, and when you leave, leave with them thinking.... Damn we need her.

Your permanent job is only a one temp job away.....

I'm an RN and currently work as an Administrator in my niche field of Infusion Therapy. That means I'm an IV nurse, working with intravenous drugs as part of a

IV pharmacy. I manage 3 sites across Montana, servicing Montana and Northern Wyoming.

I've been in the specialty for 25 years and love doing it in this rural state. It does add a different flavor to business operations to cover such a huge area. Sometimes the corporate office has trouble seeing that life here is not the same as in Chicago, LA or Seattle. We have less than 1 million people across the 4th largest state in the U.S. Same quality and standards, but less resources and lots more space to do it in.

I love my niche. I get the nursing part of helping people get better and the analytical side of figuring out how it all works together across the multi-disciplinary teams and offices.
