I'm currently a second-year medical student here in STL MO; almost halfway done!! :party:

I'm hoping to take a year between classroom science classes and my clinical years to do a fellowship with the Pathology department. I'm hoping to do an Anatomical/Clinical Pathology residency once I (finally) finish my MD in 2011 or 2012.

I think that says tons about the lapband surgery! If so many nurses have chosen it for themselves, it has to be good :cursing: Us nurses are usually very picky about having medical procedures done on ourselves.

I work in a tire store!! I know that sounds kindof off the wall, I stand at the counter and sell tires, brakes, shocks etc. I also pay the bills for the store and do the accounts receivable. I love it!! Working with men is the best no PMS issues LOL. This is a great thread.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
