Have you tried looking for a job in the counseling field? At a hospital or other large provider? The reason I suggest that is often large employers will have programs that pay part or all of employees tuition for further education. If you could get your foot in the door somewhere, even in a lower entry position, that might be a move in the right direction.
Good luck!

I'm Carissa, I had my sleeve on 6-30-2009. When I started the surgery process I was 330lbs, now I'm bouncing around between 208-212 so about 120lbs lost. I've gone from a 22W pant to a 12/14 which I never would have expected! I don't really know what else to share... lol

Well thank you! You can ask Kim and Renea I just KNEW I had made a mistake!! I was sure I'd ruined my life and body and having to give up actual EATING for over a MONTH!! No way!!
But, exercising and seeing the results. It's soo worth it! I do still crave food, don't get me wrong, but with the results and getting more fit and trim, it's so worth it to forgo that cheese burger and fries! hehe It's the bigger picture I just have to keep my eye on!
*hugs* I can't wait to see you in your fringed cover!! Post pics!!
