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.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
