There are quite a few teachers on here. :-) When does your summer vacation start. Mine starts today at 3:15!! I can't wait. What do you teach and when does your vacation start?

I teach special needs preschoolers. I love it. I started teaching them half way through my banding process, and some of my higher functioning ones noticed my weight loss, even at 4 years old. My kids I taught last year (kindergartners) say WOW, you look so pretty now! It's amazing what all children notice.

Oh how cute! I work with special needs kids too...High school level. None of them have commented on my weight loss. I think they think its just because of the surgery I just had...didn't tell em what for...just told em not to worry I will be back. No one has really asked anything. Just a lot of welcome backs! Our summer vacation doesn't start until JUNE 20-SOMETHING...Iey iey iey..Im not thinking about it, it will just be here soon! Regents testing starts in a few weeks!! I am not a teacher per say...but I am a one on one aide to a student with a disablity. Its an awesome job. I help him all the way...and he graduates this year !! I can't wait. Im proud of him! Proud of all our kids!

Okay....have a great day...enjoy your summer!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was my daughter's Kindergarten graduation, and today is her last (1/2 day) of school. As a teary-eyed sentimental mom, I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to all you teachers. You are awesome, and your skills for loving, caring, and nurturing the little minds of your students are so appreciated, even on the bad days when you patience is thin. You have an awesome job and responsibility, and I am so grateful for you!!!! Thanks!

I teach at a year around school. No summer vacation for me! I work at a preschool where we mainstream special needs children in with children of the same age. In a school of 150 children there are about 50 with different kinds of special needs. I love my job and my weight loss will help me keep up with MY little ones! :)

      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...

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. 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?
      Thanks
