Way to go punkster!:)

thanks. are your teeth feeling better? i hope so.

Not yet, but hopefully soon. Well, I guess they do feel some better because they aren't aching just sitting here. Now it only hurts when I eat. I have to admit that my cheek is raw though. They put a new appliance on the back teeth to turn them, but the piece that they put in is rubbing my cheek raw. I finally broke down and put the wax around those teeth. That made it feel much better. Everyday I question my decision to get these things put in.

i am glad something is helping. you seem to be losing weight; how are other things going.

My weight is finally moving again. It is moving slowly, but it is moving. I am excited about that. I finally got below 180 last week. Of course, after the awful way that I ate yesterday, I am back to 181 this morning. Such is the story of my life. ha ha.

How is everyone doing? Has anyone heard from Carrie in a while? I don't think I have seen any posts from her recently.

I am here. I started nursing school last week so I have been really busy. My weight loss has stalled. I really need some motivation.

Hi Carrie, Where are you in school? I finished in Aug. 2007. It is a rough ride, but worth it. I got my first lap band just after finishing my first summer. I went to a summers only program where we went four months each summer for three years. It was like taking a shower with a fire hose, lol! Hang it there and if I can help, give support, pointers, advice, let me know.

Hopefully with school starting, your weight loss will kick back in. I was just concerned after not hearing from you for a little while.

Thanks, I didn't know you were a nurse. I am going to Cleveland State. I hope to finish in 2011. We start clinicals October 2. I am really nervous about that. I have been a medical assistant for years, but this is a whole different ball game. Where do you work?

Thanks. I am hoping my weight loss will start back up again. I seem to starve when I am at school. I could probably use another fill, but I really can't afford it right now.

Glad you are doing well, Carrie. I was starting to get worried about all of you. I seemed to be the only one posting for a few days. I also went to nursing school (BSN). I hope you have a good experience. :thumbup:

My weight loss has stalled also but I am hoping that it will pick back up after my next fill on thursday.

Wow, so many nurse! I used to want to be a nurse. Then I realized just how much of a wimp I was/am...

I hope everyone has a great day!

Does anyone here have a myspace?
I don't. I can't access it from work anyway. At least for now, I can still get on here.
punkster do you work as a nurse now?

i am trying to get back into nursing because i have taken some time off. i am a neonatal nurse.
