The regain posts

MIZ, I have to ask...as a nurse practitioner, do you advise all bariatric patients to drink vodka and taquila SIX WEEKS after surgery...or just the ones who like it? One or two drinks a day is great, right?

[MIZ60 1,291]

Absolutely, especially since all the patients I provide care for are children you ignorant $#*

By the way....when you put your whiskey and Water in a 16 ounce glass as described in your post......how many ounces of each are you using?

If you think saying....nurses must stay within the outlined scope of their practice is "derogatory and disrespectful" you have more issues than any comment here can address.

Which, actually, you've already proven.

Wishing you luck, MIZ....I have a feeling you're gonna need it. Be well.

Educating patients and discussing health issues INCLUDING OBESITY is well within the scope of practice for a registered nurse. That is a huge part of nursing education, teaching people how to take better care of themselves and helping them access assistance. You obviously don't know what you are talking about but that never stops you from showing your ignorance.

I have a history of 28 years doing a job I love in a wonderful profession...I only have issues with self absorbed, condescending people. I don't need any luck....I have a wonderful life already, just need to lose some weight to feel better and be more active. It is going very well for me

I have a feeling you are going to be right back in those size 22s before long ---better double up on those potatoes and increase the fruit to 1 1/2 tons.

Best of luck to you too!!

Well you would need to check with the bartender but I think it is 1 1/2 ounces of crown and 14 1/2 ounces of ice and Water. Do you want his phone number since you are so interested?

I really wish there were more VETS around to give us the real scoop on regain. I really want hear from people who have experience in the matter, I started a thread for it months ago, not one person responded that I could tell. I think they are all gone...

Did you post it in the Vets forum?

[Julie norton 2,850]

Vets are the only ones that usually seem to not post overly dramatic themes. Some of us wait, like big viffer , reading and wondering when the bickering will stop, mostly counting on the fiercest members moving on.
We’re still here (11+ years)working our OWN programs. Best of luck to all.

And this is your business why? Do you own Bariatric Pal? Bariatric Police? No one is holding a gun to your head making you read anything on here if you don't like it or if it bothers you. Next....
