Topic: I can't wait to get started!!!
I have been a nurse for 19 years,and when I heard about WLS I couldn't imagine anyone electing to do something so drastic to their own body. I guess I've worked with patients who had to have surgery to save their lives;and to have surgery,for what I thought were cosmetic reasons,just seemed to me unbelievable. Well,like so many others who are uninformed about the positive reasons for WLS,I was blind. The change in my health has caused me to stop,listen,and learn. I am now becoming educated to the ways in which WLS can save my life!!! Please,assist me in gathering information so I may discover what you,my new friends,already know!!
