Considering VGB and I’m new here
I’m 5′3” and have a BMI of 46 too.
I was 28 years old when I started nursing school. At that time I weighed
about 250lbs. I’m 42 years old now and weigh 277. I Sylvester the cat after
that dog pulls him through a knot hole in a fence after a shift at work. At
28 years 250 may not seem like much, but in 15 years it’ll kick your butt.
I founded and managed an HIV clinic which obviously was not as hard. But it
wasn’t as rewarding either. I had other opportunities in management, but I
got into nursing to be with patients. I’m home with the kids now.
My surgery is set for 5/23 and I’m looking forward to tying my own shoes.
