Hello i am not a nurse but I am a doctor and I had my bypass surgery on september 1st. It's been a crazy month of changing of dealing with my new gut ha. But at work everyone has been so supportive I expected something completely different. But as you surround yourself with Healthcare people they know that is best for you and it will improve your life significantly. I hope your journey is going well also.

Hi Karen, Carolyn, I do hope to get positive feedback but not sure before I left I sort made jokes about it to see what would be said and like 90 percent of people was total against ire even my husband. I did have the sleeve on 9-19-17 went back into hospital one week later for an another procedure still trying to get over that. I have only lost 8 pounds. I guess I have somewhat of an excuse. No time for getting out to walk yet but maybe next week me and Mygirl ( sleeve ) will rage over the road gym or whatever it take to shed some real pounds. Keep in touch I would like to see both of you ladies outcome. See you around.
