Sleevers by profession.

A school psychologist has a doctorate. I have a Master's.

That's definitely not the difference...there are plenty of school psychologist that have Master's degrees... but thank you anyway, I was just curious to know if it was a regional type of thing because they seem so close but I researched it...sounds cool

How much time did you take off of work? I am considering having surgery Thursday or Friday before I have the week off for Thanksgiving. Just wondering if I would be ready to go back to work after the time off. I teach middle school' date=' and am usually on my feet all day, but can teach from the stool. Would appreciate any advice![/quote']

Plan on minimum 1 week and maximum 3 weeks. Everyone recovers differently, but 4 days off around thanksgiving is definitely an aggressive schedule for recovery. I needed 2 weeks off, but ended up taking 3 to feel well enough to work full days. I also spent the 1st week in the hospital and that is not typical.

I was an NZRN, a long time ago, nursing did not cause my obesity. I was a fat baby, then a fat kid, after the nursing bit I was a stay at home mum to 2 girls who are now 29 & 32. I have two grand daughters who live in the Uk with their mum and dad. If I am forced to fill in a form which has an occupation question I put Textile Artist! I currently live in Australia but have lived in up state New York and in Ottawa, Canada.

Usually you get 2-3 weeks off depends on the doctor. I was able to squeeze out

4 weeks then took a week vacation. Today I go back, sad face.

We are so blessed to have a career that enables us to do both! Although, it is a lot of work and I think I enjoy summer break more than my kids lol!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
