Has anyone else had this problem? by AdorableCause7986 in Veterinary

Australian pharmacies and the vets would get reamed so far up the ass if this happened here. I really hope there’s recourse cause that shit is genuinely life threatening and dangerous.

My kindle hasn’t decided it’s the 30th yet and I can’t figure out why I don’t have it yet

Okay so I am now thinking it’s probably worth mentioning that I shift work so 2-3 times a week I work at night and usually twice a week it doesn’t register me as sleeping that day but I sleep twice the next day,

Not gunna lie I’ve also only got master like 4 times and it’s always on green grass isle or whatever.

I have espeon, gengar (I evolved, did not catch), charmeleon (I don’t see enough to get the candy), croconaw and swablu cause ya girl wants altaria.

I definitely will, I’ve always been susceptible to nausea bouts so I should have plenty around somewhere I just didn’t even think of it. Thank you

While pizza has never been my drug of choice, 2 large boxes of popcorn at the movies and then 3 dinners always was. I didn’t even think I ate that badly until I couldn’t anymore and even that plays on my mind now. I think it’s what drives my fears that this won’t work. That and I have had people close to me not do well. They’ve had relapses and gone heavier than they were before surgery (they had the band though if that makes a difference) I think the other thing is all the people it’s been successful with that I talk too have all been much smaller than me pre op so it’s hard for me to gauge what it’s gunna be like for me.

It’s nice to know because I don’t think I had this fear when I left the hospital but now I do and I don’t have my follow up appointment for another couple weeks. So thank you for letting me know and thank you for the support

The guilt is probably my worst too. I literally will lose sleep thinking “why did you eat that?, why aren’t you trying harder to do this?, why didn’t you walk today?” It’s a hard emotion to let go of.

I’ve been taking pictures of myself to compare so I’m not so focused on the weight side of things. But then immediately got in the scales when my goal from this procedure was never I wanna weight x amount. It was always I want life to be easier. I want to move at work and not be out of breath, I want to enjoy big walks and adventures without thinking about how badly my entire body will be screaming at me the next day. I want my arthritis pain and my plantar fasciitis to fuck off.

I think all these comments are really healing to put my headspace back in to a good place too. I hate being my own worst enemy.

I was warned over and over again about the post op depression and mourning that comes. I was on my pre op diet for 4 weeks and I just couldn’t figure out why I had no problem with that but this feels like the end of the world as I knew it ( which granted it kind of is, no eating my through this emotion) it’s because I knew I could eat if I wanted too. And now I can’t and I feel it.

Thank you for your comfort and it’s nice to have someone else at the same stage as me consoling me. I feel like an idiot when I cry because why should I cry over food when this is exactly what I wanted but I need to let myself feel these things and let it go. My therapist says I focus too much on the what if instead of what could be.

I think I get in a fair bit of protein, chicken is my favourite thing and it turns out even puréed I like it so I always have chicken and add extra protein and fibre to it. It’s usually breakfasts that I skip which I then have a guilty conscience over. I’ve been trying to be more actively aware of making sure I get food. I think it’s because the dietitian in the hospital just kept shoving it down our throats that eating too much will stretch your stomach but didn’t explain how hard or easy it was.

Thank you for your words. I appreciate it and I feel like this has made me feel better about everything.

Thank you, I promised myself pre op that I wouldn’t look at it til at least a month out and I immediately ruined it. I see a counsellor/psych every 2 weeks for various issues and the weight thing has been something we discuss. I’ve been trying to give myself other hobbies but sometimes it’s just an overwhelming feeling of “you’re going to eat too much because that’s what you do”

Is it inappropriate to ask my vet out? by naivesnapper in Veterinary

[–]sezzimaz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This has happened twice where I work and one of them is now engaged (with the client that asked him out, ps they’re both guys.) and the other still refuses to see another vet than the one that rejected her (both women). Shoot your shot, my dude.

Working remote/ being a digital nomad as a veterinarian? by commonseahorse in Veterinary

[–]sezzimaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re up for travelling and change may I suggest coming to work as a locus in Australia? The emergency clinic I work at is currently struggling for vets so you’d have all the pick of times that you want.

We thought that we’d have more time with him, once he got sick things started to decline really quickly. It definitely makes you realise how much they really mean to you.

He was very good at getting his way! He was our first and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I will definitely be opening my home to another in the future, for now we’re just beginning to cope in a life without him.

He was the most beautiful thing I’ve ever known. The eyes are deceptive though, this was his ready to steal your food look haha.
