Nashville NP student (with sleeve!) looking for Women's Health Preceptor
Johanna1955 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Off topic, sorry, I'm getting desperate. I am an NP student who lives near Nashville, TN. I am currently doing my peds rotation. I need a OB/GYN MD or NP to precept with in the fall for a couple of months. I only need 8 hours a week for a couple of months. Have lost 102 lbs with my sleeve. I was overweight for 30 year and my sleeve is such a blessing!! Thanks if anyone can help. DutchgirlRN@gmail.com -

Johanna1955 replied to DivaNurse's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My surgiversary was Feb 12th. I am down 97lbs. Don't even care about that extra 3 lbs. Wanted 100 lbs by one year but who cares! I look great, I feel great. I can't wait to thank my surgeon once again. Here are my before and after photo's. Congrats to all my co-Febuary sleevers! -

That is so awesome! My husband also a T2 diabetic had surgery on 1/2/14 and hasn't had any diabetic medications since. Prior to surgery he had to have insulin and his A!C was 12.8. His blood glucose now runs 102-120. He's feeling a little weak. I told him probably because he has been used to running 225-350 for the past 10 years. It's going to take a while to get used to having a normal blood glucose. It kinda like he feels hypoglycemia now. Congratulations to you!

I was sleeved 2/12/13, have lost 96 lbs and have not missed any foods what-so-ever! My husband was sleeved on 1-2-14 and that was his #1 concern. He was afraid he would have food cravings and miss eating. It's only 2 weeks after surgery but he's lost 24 lbs (including pre-op liquid diet) and he has no hunger at all and no cravings at all. The best part is that he is a diabetic and is used to running 250-350 with his blood sugar checks. He has had no diabetic medication since surgery and his blood glucose is running 102-125 consitantly. He basically had the surgery to get rid of his diabetes. He has a total of 70 lbs to lose. He was a hard core eater and sweet eater. I am very proud of him! -

It's been almost a year now. I had surgery on 2-12-13. I've lost 91 lbs! I feel so much better. Haven't had the first issue, didn't lose any hair, have not been hungry, have not regretted surgery for a second. My husband is being sleeved on 1-2-14. I'm excited for him. I'm learning to enjoy buying clothes once again. People at work call me skinny sometimes. Had one person who didn't know me ask me how I stay to slim and trim. Love it!! -
