Had to share this great article about Bariatric Doctors and Nurses who have had weight loss surgery.

I serve on the Obesity Action Coalition National Board with 2 of the awesome people featured in the article Dr. Walt Medlin and Pam Davis, RN, BSN, CBN and I can attest that they do indeed practice what they preach. You are lucky ducks if you are in their programs.

Thanks for the references- I'll be sure to look them up. I know several nurses and one doctor who have had WLS. I myself am a professional, being both a psychotherapist and a nurse who has had WLS, and it sure is helpful working with people having been there done that.

And thanks for your marvelous website- I use it all the time!
