   nursejws replied to JUSTYSMOM's topic in General Nursing

   I, too, have been researching WLS since March 2001, and HOPEFULLY my hubby and I will have surgery by the end of this year. FINALLY! I have a new job, with new insurance, etc, etc. With that said, I know a lot about this surgery, and you probably...

   nursejws replied to biscuit_007's topic in General Nursing

   I agree the lawsuit is ridiculous. Is there really a need to SUPER-SIZE?!?!?!?! I mean if you go with what is considered a proportional meal, super-size, whata-size, etc, etc, etc, should be removed from the menu. I know this is all common sense,...

7. When someone asks "Why do you want to go into nursing?"

   nursejws replied to colleen10's topic in General Students

   You mean me wanting to wear scrubs and own a stethoscope isn't a good answer? :rotfl: Seriously, I changed my major to nursing because I like helping people. At the end of the day, I like to know that I made a difference. I'm so tired right now ...

8. New Weight Loss Surgery

   You know what...I just read a post on one of our local wls surgeons sites. There's this girl on there who had open rny, but the surgeon found cancer when he opened her up and aborted the rny. She has been following the post op diet since August 200...

9. New Weight Loss Surgery

   nursejws replied to LasVegasRN's topic in General Nursing

   And another thing....LVRN does not look like she would/could qualify for wls. Most insurance guidelines start off with "BMI over 40"

12. How many of you married doctors?

    nursejws replied to JHUnurse's topic in General Nursing

    JHUnurse, I'm not married to a dr, but I like the way you think! Specifically: "Let's face it, my nursing salary will not be enough to live in NYC, where I want to live, AND support a family." I can't help it, I LOVE NYC!
