I am a Regional Sales Manager for a Mortgage Bank. I manage 18 Type A high maintenance Account Executives and also run our National Marketing Group.

More importantly, I am a Mom to my wonderful little 11 month old boy, Ben. My husband is a stay at home Daddy. I think his job is harder than mine!!!!

This seems like a good place for a newbie to start posting!

I'm a Work at Home Mom for my two kids, a boy 16 who is a junior in hs, and a girl age 11 in 6th grade. They keep me busy with Soccer, Scouts, Art classes etc.

For income and basic sanity, I've been a Skin Care Consultant with Mary Kay Cosmetics for the past 17 years. I love my job! I get to help women (mostly) with their skin care needs and play with make up.

Prior to MK and Motherhood, I worked with abused children and thier families, helping to reunite foster children with their parents by teaching their parents basic life skills they lacked. I was also working on my Master's degree in Agency Counseling.

I also spent a couple of years working for a financial media company that is a popular Internet website. That was fun.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.

Always ;-)

:bandit I'm the G.M. of a Community Center in a small Minnesota town. It has a fitness center that I never used for five years, until the banding. I've been able to use my 90 lb. loss to encourage others. I know I should've been a better "poster boy" for fitness over the bigger years, but at the end of the day it's still performance that matters in the work-place.

Get out and go get em!

I forgot to mention that in addition to teaching, I am a mom to 12 and 17 year old sons, 25 yr old daughter, 8 year old grandaughter, 3 mini weenie dogs and 2 mutts.

I also care for my mom (on hospice) and have been doing so for 5 and a half years. She was completely incapacitated(can't walk, talk, toilet) due to obesity which resulted in diabetes and stroke.

I've been a Mercury Insurance agent (auto & home) the last 4 years. Before that I was a freelance graphic designer for 12 years.

The professions are so similar!

Ha! So great to know what folks do!!

I'm a writer, poetry mostly. And, since that doesn't pay well (yep, when was the last time *you* bought a book of poems?) I am also a Prof. of English.

My dh and I own two businesses: romantic gondola cruises in Newport Beach (CA), Lake Las Vegas (NV), Irving (Dallas area, TX), Myrtle Beach (SC), and soon to open in Orlando (FL) -- see www.gondola.com. My dh also performs wedding ceremonies in Southern California -- www.YouMayKissTheBride.com -- and I run the office for him.

Hey -- if anyone wants a gondola cruise in any of our locations, I can give you a special LBT discount :)

In addition to that, we homeschool our two daughters ages 8 (3rd grade) and 5 (kindergarden).

<whew> Makes me tired just typing it!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

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?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
