Its so amazing how much younger one looks after losing weight!

Awesome

I'm sorry to hear that, I'm a cardiac nurse, and sustained rapid heartbeats are dangerous even if they originate from the sinus node

Did they try a cardioversion

How did the Lapband cause you to be on beta blockers for life

I'm so glad to hear that you are doing okay.

Please go to the hospital. There is afib and afib with a rapid rate, which is very dangerous.

So amazing!

Consider surgery

I am 5 10.5 SW250 goal weight 160, expecting that around 180 I'll hear comments that I'm thin enough, as people always comment now that I am not big enough to consider sheet. when you are tall it's hard for someone to guess your weight.

Awesome! can't wait for my time to share the same news!

Good point and you look awesome!

Truly amazing

OMG this is just what I was looking for. I'm a RN, just beginning the process. Any floor nurses out there? How much time off work did you need?

I'm so happy to chat with you! Are you a floor nurse? How much time off will you need? Sounds like your procedure was very smooth, I'm just getting started. You just gave me some hope!

Thanks for sharing. Just got news that I have to do 3months with nutritionist, I was really hoping to have sleeve in Feb, but my first appointment is not until end of December.

I was wondering if African Americans have the same success with the sleeve and weight loss as our counterpartS

Where do you have staples

How are you doing, I really enjoyed your post.

I'm sending prayers for you too, stay optimistic and relax as much as possible, stress wreaks havoc on the body.

Thanks for sharing, I'm a RN and love to read the experiences, some how it makes me feel I'm in control of events, however I work with surgical patients and I know how one twist of events can causes a different outcome for a patient. I'm still wondering how much time I'll need off work too.

Thanks!

Thanks, I've read so many postings, good, bad and ugly. How's it been for you so far?

Just getting started at Ssm St. Louis. Anyone care to share information about their experience and maybe "life lessons".
