Most programs require at least 1-2 years of ICU experience, though the median length of experience in my class seems to be about 5 years.
I'll let you know how school goes...thanks again!
Gwen | Thank You for the Tip... I still got a long way to go..
So is everyone ready for the holidays??

City: Gretna State: NE | Congrats Cuddle!! There are times when I see a baby and wish with all my heart to have another one, then realize that I only have 6 years to go until my last is off to college and decide that I can wait for grandbabies.
Welcome Gkeyt. Looks like you are doing great.
OH Juli-Reading about that boy and with all the pain he must be in just about made me cry that he took the time to give you a pat on the back. He must be one hell of a kid.
Well, had company this weekend and my brain didn't pay too close attention to what was going into my mouth. But my band sure did. I had 2 pb's. One Saturday after taking a big drink to wash down a Trisket, and one Sunday from not chewing a bite of pork chop well enough. They were not that bad, just what I would call "last bite forced exit". I think it's the slimming that gets to me though. That is soooooo gross.
As of this morning, drum roll, 185!!!! 5 lbs in 15 days to hit my goal of 180 for Christmas. I can do it, I can do it!!
Have a great day everyone.

City: Columbus State: OHIO | Awe shucks. I started pretty high. Not that I'm not proud...I was happy as could be to see the 100+ in less than a year, but now I need to focus on the what's left to lose.
Actually there's been a shift in my thinking from counting pounds lost to really working on what's left to accomplish.
The band is a fantastic tool! |

City: Gretna State: NE | Way to go Jeni!! Don't it feel good!!
Texas-57 lbs gone, you are doing great!
And I agree with Jmcambra, you are also my hero OH Juli. Not only in weight loss but you are such a supportive person and always have something uplifting to say (even when you are dishing out well deserved and asked for "tough love")

| Season’s greetings Hello Marchies
I just wanted to stop by and say I hope everyone is coping well with the holidays and staying warm!!! I am just so suprised at how fast the time has passed by since March. I am praying that I can continue to keep up my momentum during these cold months. I have been really intreuged with peoples reaction to my weight lost because everyone always says how good I look, but some times I just see the same person I have always seen. I know I need to do some work on my self preception. Anyhow, I love my band!!!
Happy Holidays
