Smile Back to work

Today is my first day back to work in 2 months. I am filling in for someone else at a different store so it should be interesting. I'll update when I come home.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Well I am back from work. It wasn't too bad. I can't believe I don't have throbbing feet like I used to. I stand for my whole shift. The eating/drinking was a HUGE problem today. I only have a 15 minute break which clearly is not enough time to eat much of anything. I also can not drink on the sales floor so I was not able to get any shakes or water in. Does anyone have suggestions? I don't want to become dehydrated again. I was actually hungry today can you believe it?! Could be because I have not eaten since last night......

Sales jobs are likely going to be the hardest place for someone after WLS. I would talk to your supervisor and ask that you be able to keep a water bottle with you. Explain that you must drink water through out the day or it could have very serious consequences. I hope they will be willing to let you do that.

Glad to hear your feet are good though. That is exciting!!

Glad your day went good. Last fall I picked up a part time job at Boston Store and they too have a policy of no drinking on the floor. I went to the supervisor and explained that I needed my fluids. She asked if I could get a doctor's note which my surgeon was happy to put together for me. I've had no problems with any of them super's but once in a while one will walk by and shake a finger at me. I'm sure they don't all know I have a note. You have to find a way to get more water in during the day.

Glad your day went well. I agree that perhaps a note from your surgeon may be the ticket to solving the water problem.
