Wow so glad I started this topic. . It is funny cause since i have been banded about another 5 staff at diffrent sites i work at have come out of the woodwork and have bands too. It is pretty cool to help people and the band helps us.

I'm a nurse, have been for 37 years. Background is critical care and emergency nursing. Taught staff development for many years, and now edit textbooks for student nurses.

There's a special forum for nurses on the OH site, but you have to hunt to find it, so it's not very active.

I'm currently an MA planning on getting my RN. I currently go to school on Saturdays to get some of my pre-reqs out of the way. I work for a group of spine surgeons in DFW.

Just an observation about others I know with bands. .

How many of us are Nurses? I know I am not the only one.

Hah I remember chatting with you about this yesterday :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
