  • Oh Jess keep on at it. Eventually the wind will change. Honest. xx
  • My heart is with you, Jess -- I've been in there and it's frustrating! BTW, ladies, I'm late today because I've been stoned out of my mind following a colonoscopy -- my first. I'm happy to report that the doctor foound NOTHING -- no jokes about me being a perfect ***!
  • Hi, all!

    I'm back from vacation...would love to reply to each person separately, but with so many days of postings, I don't think that is possible! I hope everyone is safely over their poopy issues, happily OP and losing! :

    Jess, as a career counselor, I can say that if you can afford it, offer to work as an intern with them for no pay to gain experience. I bet they'll hire you on full time in no time! Interning is a great way to get the experience you need. If they won't take you, look for other places that might and would be appreciated by this company. You'll do fine!

    We spent five days in VT, NH, and ME, and it was wonderful! The highlight of the trip, for me, was kayaking in ME...in the ocean! I felt like a total super chick when we were done...and it was so totally enjoyable! My DH said that he was amazed that I actually like exercising, and I was thrilled to note that I don't hate being in photos as much!

    It was hard staying OP at times, especially when our B&B host tried so hard to fuss over me and give me something special to eat that was OP, and I ended up eating carbs and fruit for breakfast which gave me cravings all day. I had a hard time finding restaurants that served things I could eat, and I was a bit bummed at that. I even indulged in a scoop of SF ice cream! My first real cheat...in an otherwise OP time. Staying OP the rest of the time was worth it though...I stepped on the scale this morning, and I've lost at least a pound from when we left, and I'm on my TOM!!! Who could believe that???
  • Natter, I'm so glad your scope went well! I particularly appreciate you sparing us the intimate details of your colon.

    Laurie, welcome back, hon! Only YOU would lose weight while on holiday!
