My job is working with 16-25 year olds who live in a sheltered accommodation unit. we are assigned a case load and have to encourage general welfare, help with budgeting skills find courses etc. and encourage independent living, liaising with other outside agencies. Never a dull moment. Lots of documentation required everything is to be logged. So far I am feeling quite excited by it all but we will see after a month there are some lovely young'uns there, all kinds of probs. xxxx

I worked in supported housing for 12 years and I loved it. I worked with adults with learning difficulties though. It's a lovely job :)
 
It is demanding, but so rewarding. I really love the job I have now. I get to help and support people regain their function and independence after having a stroke. It's the best job ever as I get to see people getting better every day! :)

I wouldn't say perfect lol. But I do try really hard to stay on the straight and narrow, because I really want to succeed at this. I'm not gonna lie, some days it is a struggle. But nothing worth having comes easy does it? :)

I love my job too Paula, I work in a combined stroke unit. So we have the acute cases come through, and we take them all the way through rehab until they are ready for community. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing someone walk through door as they leave.

First day back today, I'm amazed at myself. Not only did I cope, I kept up with my colleagues, and I'm no more tired than I would have been normally. It was a great day.

B: Atkins daybreak bar. 100ml orange juice.
S: Danio strawberry yogurt.
L: 50g chicken, 2 babybel. Lucozade lite.
S: 2 apple weetabix biscuits, 2 cheeseTs
D: Lasagna, no pasta.

400ml milk in drinks. 4 litres of fluid (its thirsty work nursing).
 
I have to be honest and say while I agree, I couldn't cope with not treating within my limits. But as I've said before, I've not seen any two postops who deal with food alike

Bang on the money there Yve. We've all had the same procedure, yet our journeys are all so different. And that's what makes it interesting :)
 
Good morning everyone!! so many new names now in this thread which is lovely!! Just to let you all know that I am doing really well now and back at work and getting on with life. Still losing weight thank goodness though and into a size 12 jeans now!! Spent a lovely afternoon yesterday with penelope1008 fromt he wls forum and her husband, she met my new partner and I got her approval lol!! I would have been worried if she hadnt of liked him as she is much more perceptive than I am.. We had a great time and she made lovely mexican bean soup and a fresh fruit salad with fage yoghurt. Probably the best afternoon I have spent in a long time... It really does feel as if I have got my life back now!! trying to catch up with all the posts on here I have missed etc., Really am going to try and post here more often as I feel the support here is still something I need and probably always will..
Anyway I miss all you guys!! So need to keep posting.. Hope everyone has a lovely day today xxx
 
HI Amanda I am so pleased to hear that. Back to work and introducing your new fella to Pen an d her hubby. THe weather is lovely and I have been in my new job a week today. Guna be wet n cooler from tomorrow though so back to normal I guess lovely to hear from ya, n pleased you are back in your job once again. It does you good to be around people, takes your mind off your own probs and you focus on others. xx
 
Absolutely Chrisa!!! Hope the new job is still going well! You seem so happy about it, which also is lovely.... I think it is important to carry on posting here, both for myself, and also because I think we need to give back some of the support we received at the beginning of our journeys and to reassure people starting out that there really is a wonderful life after wls surgery... xx
