First time I've been able to log in since the baby was born and I'm glad I found your post, my friend. It takes a lot of courage to share what you did and know that your friends here at CA are behind you, supporting you all the way, 250%. I'm very sorry for the cr@p you've had to endure but here's to a great, positive change and you're already well on your way! Well done, Ferdinand and best of luck and health to you! If there's anything I can ever do for you, please don't hesitate to call on me.

Hey Ferdinand,

Good to hear about the steps you are taking (both health and work related sound like good choices).
I have been way to busy to attend any herfs lately due too work, study and family affairs. But we really need to chat up soon.

Best of health and luck to you,
Django

Go for it man, a family member had it done over a year ago. I don't know the exact number of pounds lost but has to be at least 135, and now looks great.
Twice I got called to go to the hospital we thought we were going to lose her.
Thyroid was way out of wack, BP was through the roof, and this person was type two diabetic.
Today thyroid and B P are normal, diabetes is gone, and is not on any kind of meds

Fernando, I am sorry for your current job situation. It's incredibly frustrating to have a bad boss. I'm glad for your own peace of mind that you'll be ending your employment there.

Having gastric bypass surgery is a great decision. The road between here and 100 kilo may be bumpy, but you'll be glad you did it. Congrats. Making choices to improve your life are going to pay big dividends.

They say the average man will change career paths half a dozen times, so this won't be the last crossroad for you probably.

I firmly believe all things happen for a reason and in the grande scheme of things, they alway seem to work out for the best and make you stronger.

I have a feeling this will be your case.

Never forget, you are too blessed to be stressed.

I'm glad you've decided to get out of a bad situation at work, and take care of yourself personally, Ferd! I hope everything works out the best for ya, and after the surgery you have a quick recovery and enjoy your new body! If you need ANYTHING let us know!
