I am an RN and can't imagine doing anything else. I have done the yo yo effect with my weight for years but gained the most during nursing school. I want to be healthy and feel good again. The weight and high blood pressure drag me down. My consult appointment is on December 21st with Dr. Sherer. I am worried however because I have BC/BS and now they are changing their requirements. I really hope to be approved. The long standing effects of obesity are massive, from heart disease and diabetes to joint and bone disorders and sleep apnea. The long term effects of WLS are permanent life altering changes for the good health of an individual. In the long run the insuance companies will be saving money on Heart bypass, Hypertension meds and cholesterol meds and diabetes supplies. Pray for me guys...pray for me. I have never been so serious about wanting my health back in my life. Thanks
