I am a Business Office Manager for a large Medical Practice in Memphis Tn. You know I think it is the fear of not being able to do this and every one saying things behind your back when you don't lose the weight fast enough or maybe the fear of people saying you have to go threw a surgery because you are to lazy to stop feeding you face.....

You guys will get a good laugh out of this. I am a Registered Dietitian. I work 20 hours a week in a hospital. I also invest in real estate with my husband. We have several rental properties that I manage.

People always want me to give them a diet when they find out what I do. I usually tell them that I can't even manage my own diet!! :)

I am a Secretary for a middle school principal...there are three assistant principals and one that oversees the entire building. I am secretary to one of the assistants. Last school year was my first year at the job. In 27 days I go back to work to begin my second year. I hope to retire from the school district someday.

Before that I worked as the Clerical Coordinator at the main office of a non-profit organization that serves people with developmentally disabled people. My boss drove me to have to see a therapist, so my new job was a God-send. I volunteered in the school district for 14 years, so I knew it would be a good fit.

Before that I owned my own home-based business typing for procrastinating college students (this was before everyone owned their own computer or lap top) and wrote resumes and cover letters and helped people with job search. This enabled me to stay at home with my son when he was younger.

Hi all, I am finishing my Master's in Industrial Organizational Psychology. I work at the college I attend as a Psychology, Math, Biology and Physics tutor. My "main" job is spending lots of hours studying! I have managed a 4.0 throughout my entire college career and I am determined to stay that way. It helps that I went back to school older! lol I attend the same college that both of my kids attend (it doesn't bother me, but they aren't doing back flips over it! LOL) I am getting banded so that I can get a job when I finish my education, without size discrimination!

      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.
