Worked in property management for quite a few years, had a "I had kids young and don't feel like I have had any fun moment" so i went out and took classes for firefighting. Got one good season in as a wildland firefighter in 2002 and then it got interesting from there.

After back surgury, some problems with my heart and a TON of weight gain (I have never been small by any means but was soooo much healthier) I find myself temporarily back as a community manager for a property manangement group.

I am currently going back to school for a few different things.....

1. I am going to finish my degree in fire science (only have 12 credits to go) so I can put a "diploma" to all the hours and hours of time I spent in class.

2. I am taking classes at Clayton College for a bachelors of Holistic Nutrition (this is just for me so I can learn a better way to take care of me and my family for the long run)

3. I am going to Arizona in September to get certified in permenant cosmetic application.

My goal is to find something to do with the USFS that is fun, only part-time and only in the summer, plus not as stressing on my body as fighting fire, then I can do the permenant cosmetics on the side as a creative outlet (that just happens to make really good money) so I can enjoy the last few years my boys are home (they are 12 & 15) and have flexible schedule to spend time with my wonderful DH that doesn't have a flexible schedule (he is a police officer).

I am a deputy in the Clerk of Court office in our County Courthouse. (I know everybody's little secrets!) Back in August 2005, a couple of weeks before my lap band surgery, a guy flipped out when the sheriff's deputies tried to serve a protection order on him and he came and set our police department and the courthouse on fire! Then he shot a police officer in a round of gun fire. We had only left the courthouse about 20 minutes before he poured the gasoline in the doorway to set the fire.

That was big news here! It is a small county and things like that just don't happen here!

For money I work as an accountant processing bill backs and program allowances for a large Tomato processing plant, hope to change careers and go into teaching.

For love I am the single parent to the most beautiful little boys in the world (recently divorced).

Hi everyone....I'm a Human Resources Assistant for an Ivy League university in NY. I worked in insurance for 12 years then they downsized, but I'm much happier where I am now (for 8 years so far!). My husband is a foreman for a construction company.

Before I got sick with Fibro and CFS, I was a certified massage and Reiki therapist. I'm hoping once I lose enough weight, I'll feel well enough to return to work.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

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?
