I am a panel electrician for a company that builds paint systems for the auto industry. Just 40 guys and me. I can't wait to lose this weight so they might treat me like a female...Nah after 17 years there, I'm always gonna be one of the guys! But I love 'em and they are all rooting for me! Course if I fail, they will all say...Isn't that just like a woman! Spends money for something that doesn't work! But secretly, theres a couple of guys waiting to see how it goes for me, because they are considering having it done too

I am an Organ recovery nurse. I go out and talk to families about donation and then if they wish to donate their loved one's organs, I stay and make it happen by setting up the process and finding the matching recipients. I work on call from home and so I have access to the computer on and off all day.

I am a Program Manager/Project Manager in High Tech in Silicon Valley. I telecommute full time which, believe me, is not a good thing at times. Go for the new job when you are feeling better. Its great to get outside of the house. Good luck.

I'm a stay at home mom to my 8 year-old triplet boys. Hardest job I've EVER had. I loved being a mom to babies, but these big boys are running me out of my mind! I also work part-time for my sister as her Realtor's Assistant doing her admin/marketing work. We live in the same neighborhood, so I can either work from home or a few blocks away and she always understands when I have to take care of my boys. Not much, but it helps to pays for my home decorating addiction...

In my "former life", I was a corporate manager at an international brokerage firm. Quite a change, there, huh? My husband is an Engineer at a large Engineering and Construction company catering to the oil & gas industry. Heathergurl do you perhaps work for the "Blue Pony"? My husband says that designers can pretty much write their own ticket these days in this booming market and make even more than he does as a project manager. Lucky gurl!

Cool thread.

My other job is LOOSING WEIGHT - I am obsessed with it. I watch what I eat, and I exercise daily. I am trying to squeeze a little time in to tan, as my husband thinks I am as white as a sheet of paper. :) :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
