WLS and Schooling



Recommended Posts

I signed up for classes this semester and I was wondering if anyone else is attending the Spring 2019 Semester? I am working towards a degree in Radiology; I have a very high interest in the medical field and I worked on pinpointing exactly what I wanted to do. So Radiology it is! I have a very dense class coming up, A&P I (Human Anatomy and Physiology I) so I am a little nervous. I am still suffering from mild to moderate fatigue, so I am hoping I can juggle work and school.

But let us use this as a place to rant and vent about school! :)

I'm currently smack-dab in the middle of my master's program and have a FT career (and a husband and 2 girls, 11 and almost 9). (Sleeved 10/17/18). I am still struggling a bit with fatigue and mental fog, but I can't quit now!!

Yes, my Batty love! I am entering semester 2 of my master's program next week. I had surgery mid-December so that it would fall between semesters! I can't wait for my classmates to see me again in awhile!

Yeah, I had my surgery on the same exact day for that reason too! It's been really nice not having to deal with schoolwork when we're this tired, right? :)

Yeah, I was sleeved on 12/12 and I am a little worried about fatigue. I do not have any kids, but I have a FT job with a house and a bunch of animals. I've been needing to sleep more and more - I just don't feel like I am going to have any energy or time.

I just started a new course and I hate it. I'm having to put effort in and I don't like it! I'm too busy using all my effort to live this new lifestyle!

I had this professor for my undergrad courses a few years ago but she is much tougher than I remember her being. *sigh* Back to reading my 2nd of 3 required readings before I can even start on the actual homework...and then move on to the quiz. I can't wait for December when my program is over!!

Although the topic is old, but it is extremely interesting and familiar to me. I myself remember how I tried to combine my studies and work during college and had to choose where I wanted to develop, otherwise I would not have survived from fatigue. I can't say that I regretted my choice, because I climbed up the carreer ladder, but I can't say that I would advise anyone. In general, the best solution is to choose one thing and not to distribute themselves on a bunch of different things

Combining studies and weight loss or just a healthy regime is possible and real. So, sorry, Frater, but I disagree with you. Everything that counts is to know how to manage and organize your powers and directions of your concentration. I observed I had no time for everything to do well, and I asked for help with schooling (and have to say that it is normal for a teen not to be ideal and to need support because we are still learning). My classmate suggested to go here and ask experts to write my assignments. Therefore, I do all my tasks due to deadlines and have time for sports and other healthy activities in my life.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
