Hello everyone

What the heck no roll call yet!!!

I thought I would pop on to read about everyone's day and there's nothing to read.

Well I got to work today and it's been busy, busy, busy.  I had a meeting with my boss and she said the president of the company picked a few people to answer a questionnaire about the company and I was one of the managers picked.  Yuck...why me???  I'm looking at the questions and thinking what the heck am I supposed to say.  Then my boss says make sure you dress extra nice the day you talk to him.  Of course I am wearing business clothes and I said well what I'm wearing now is fine.  She then said no that  I should dress up a little more!!!  Well first of all I don't have any suit jackets or dresses and I'm not going out to buy any because they won't fit in a couple of months.  And what I'm wearing now is fine.  I am wearing black slacks, a white blouse under a black and white sweater and a pair of heels...what in God's name is wrong with this outfit!!!  Well I am going to wear what I usually wear to work.  I am not buying anything special.  People just annoy me here. I need a new job.

On a better note I am working out with my friends again after work.  I don't know if I ever mentioned that there is a gym here in the building we work in and is available to all of us at work.  I just never went there because I didn't want to go by myself.  So we literally get off of work and walk to the other side of the building and workout.  How nice is that and working out with my friends makes it more fun.  So watch out because tomorrow I will complain about being sore again.

Dawn- Have been thinking about you and sending you good vibes...can you feel them??

Lisa- I was wondering you have to do home visits.  What do you do on the home visits?

Well better get back to work ...see you all later.

 Hello!

What the heck?  

Did everyone take Tuesday off?  Where is everyone today?

It was busy for me at work today.  Plus I was ready to put a contract out on my computer.  It gave me fits yesterday and today it was worse.  In fact at one point today it decided to shut down on its own in the middle of a call.  I could not get it restarted.  

Crystal,  what you wore today sounds fine.  If they dont like it then they can pay for new clothes.  Unless your office has a dress code calling for dresses and suits I dont think they can dictate what you can wear.  

Tomorrow is hump day.    I am anxious to get this week over with!  

Everyone have a great evening and day tomorrow.

 What the heck?  I just posted, hit submit and my whole reply disappeared!  Well here goes again!

I think everyone must be taking Tuesday off.  

Today is a day I am glad is over.  My computer was giving me problems yesterday and today it was worse.  It even turned itself off on its own and refused to restart.  Of course it was right in the middle of talking to a customer.    I was ready to put out a contract on it.  

Crystal, unless your office has a dress code requiring suits or dresses, they cannot force you to go buy anything or wear anything specific.  What you had on sounds just fine.  If they want you to wear a suit, ask if they are going to pay for it.  

I am so happy tomorrow is hump day.  I am more than ready to put this week behind me!

Everyone have a great evening and day tomorrow!

RNY on 09/27/10 with
I'm getting into the swing of being back at work. Had to enter a reminder alarm for snacks and lunch, as I'd work right through them. Maybe in a few weeks, I'll enter a reminder to take a half-hour walk at lunch, or go over to the health club and do the bike (better on my hip joint).

My pants are seriously getting saggy. Using binder clips on the waist to keep them up.

You know, out of ALL the books on RNY/WLS I read before surgery, none of them talked about the pace at which one would/could/should lose weight. They talked about long-term outcomes, but nothing for the week-by-week after surgery.

Do you guys have any rules of thumb??? I just want to know if I'm moving along normally. I've also put in a call to my nut to see who might be able to answer this for me.

Enjoy the chilly weather!

Hi All,

I am guilty of not coming on this morning, since, I left for work early, and overslep a bit.

Crystal, you have nice slacks, a nice top and a nice sweater. If you wear flats  or tie shoes to work with socks, "dress up" with heels and nylons. Or, better yet, heck with it and dress like you always do. Neat and clean. Your boss is the one who has a problem, not you. /////our dress code is no flipflops, tank tops, ripped jeans or shorts above the knee. My standard outfit is either black pants, or blue jeans, loafers with black socks,a pullover top and either a sweater or a jacket, Plus earrings and a necklace or scarf. If they don't like what I wear, to bad.

Oh, to answer your question, I do applications for gas and electric help. We do home visits for those that are house bound,

Off to finish dinner, then watch a bit of tv this evening.  I am going to agree with Nancy, I will be glad when this week is over.

huggers,
LISA
