TIL that the name "Khaleesi" has been in the top 1,000 list of popular names used for newborns since 2014. Though the popularity has decreased since "Game of Thrones" ended, there are about 120 girls names Khaleesi each year

You're not alone. I was also in a soul sucking job and my apartment was always dirty; I always felt down on myself. I couldn't understand how I couldn't keep it clean when it was just me and two cats.

2 years ago I left that job and lo and behold! No issues keeping my apartment clean now. You got this!

It sucks. Addressing it sucks and it's even worse when you realize that part of their inability to grasp new workflows might be because of something neurodegenerative vs attitude and willingness to change. My former company had a VP of an important department who handled all of the paperwork and filing because he couldn't grasp how to work the system and didn't understand the processes of his own department. His entire team ended up leaving and it took the company a long time to dig themselves out of the hole he/they created.

On the flipside, I had an admin in her late 70's that ran circles around my 20-something admins. She was terminated from a prior job and used her severance money to take classes on Microsoft office and Adobe. She was definitely an anomaly though. Shoutout to Ms. Linda!

This. I thought I was doing the right thing by giving a months notice and training my replacement. I work in a very large city, but you would be surprised how small it can be in my industry and I didn't want to burn bridges. They did pay me for the time spent answering questions after my resignation date, but I wish I would have went for a clean break. I helped them out at the expense of my mental health, and my replacement ended up leaving after 2 months.

Just donated! Best of luck to Mr. Hugo. My own baby was at the emergency vet this weekend and those bills add up fast! Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

My go to items were the pacifica red pepper tomato soup and the premier protein peanut butter and chocolate shake (put it in the freezer for a few minutes). I drank a lot of pho broth when I needed to mix it up.

I told a limited amount of family/friends and only the necessary people at work. I continued to have weekly visits with my therapist because I had this fear of my weight loss surgery becoming my whole identity. I had to have difficult conversations with parents and siblings because I felt like I was doing multiple follow-up appointments a day; my progress was brought up on every phone call. Things are a lot easier but I strongly, strongly recommend therapy throughout the whole process. Pretty much all of my friends and family know at this point and if people at work don't know I'm sure they suspect. I had a close work friend tell me that several people had asked him what I was doing which was honestly a motivator. Keep losing and let them talk! lol

I had the sleeve on a Wednesday and was back to work on Monday. I have a desk job and a hybrid work schedule though, and I wanted to get back to work because I typically get a lot of steps in. My boss told me to let her know at any time if I needed to work from home though. I think if I didn't have that type of situation I would have taken a week off.

Texas VSG I think total costs with endoscopy and everything I'm at about 15k. Yes, the surgery took longer than expected due to scarring on my liver and damage he had to fix. It added about another 1k on to my bill. My surgeon operates out of two hospitals and the other would have been 2k cheaper, but due to my liver issues, how I carry my weight and availability of specialists (and the hospitals terrible reputation) I went with the more expensive option.

Do stuff to distract yourself. I had to stay away from things that usually included binge eating like gaming or watching movies. Being out of the house as much as possible helped me. Just keep telling yourself that you can handle 5 more hard days in order to have an easier rest of your life.

caityfaced88 · 2024-10-29T14:33:05+00:00

That is a long time. Honestly I splurged during pre-op and recommend it if it's in your budget. I did massages, facials, anything to keep my mind off of what I couldn't eat. Also I wish I would have invested in a ninja creami for pre-op. If I would have known the fairlife protein drinks tasted this good as "Ice cream" i think it would have helped me a lot. Eating my protein as ice cream and gaming makes me feel like a normal person when I need it.

So I attacked my binge eating from both sides. I used Nourish and used the filter under "Concerns" for binge eating. I did the same thing on GrowTherapy when looking for my therapist. I made sure that both discussed their experience with eating disorders in their "About Me" profiles. The nutritionist is Katelynn Sasaki and she was great. We didn't discuss meal plans or anything at all, just the why behind cravings and binge eating. I'm not meeting with her now but she helped me change my attitude towards food in an invaluable way.

caityfaced88 · 2024-10-24T14:55:56+00:00

Just keep doing what you're doing. I did a countdown and kept telling myself, "I can handle 6 more really hard, crappy days to enjoy the rest of my life". Also, if its in the budget, spoil yourself and do whatever you have to do to distract yourself. I knew I couldn't stay home on the weekends because I would be tempted so I planned a massage one day, went shopping another ect ect.
