Teri Can you share who did your daughter's Lasik in TJ and how much it cost??

Sadly no, I created the graphic myself so if you just tell me what you want it to say I will post a custom one for you!!

Ok here is one for all the Canada Gals: Just add this behind the http:// provided in the pop up box after clicking the button: a798.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/75/l_eca6ce07c5d9b0a9f56736831f471965.gif Here's the one for your goal Nicole: Just add this behind the http:// provided in the pop up box after clicking the button: a586.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/55/l_7e4dfd195cbd3ba89926ef1ba87f12b1.gif I also made this one: Just add this behind the http:// provided in the pop up box after clicking the button: a409.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/6/l_a7462c65b331d02001333757705edad8.gif

Ok so when I went to add some more pics to my Album it says that I have reached the maxium number of photos allowed in an album so then I thought ok I'll just make a new album and it says I have reached the maxium number of albums allowed (I guess it's 1 per member) Chad- Is this something we can tweak, or does Dr. O not want the site to take up so much bandwith by hosting a huge number of pictures... I mean there are like 6,000 members but only 20 or so have galleries... Thanks for all you do!

Just have a second but let me see if I can explain... All you need from the code that they give you is the address of the picture.... It will start with http:// and end with .gif Sunshinegirl yours is: http://server.blinkyou.com/glitters/glitte.../Dh4qOejaEF.gif So go into your signature control pannel and click the icon the popup box will provide the http:// part so all you need to enter is: server.blinkyou.com/glitters/glittermaker/gallery/05232008/Dh4qOejaEF.gif And you should get this:

I made one for you Canada gals but I have to upload it from my laptop... (I'm using my cell/PDA right now) I will upload it tonight for you guys!!

OK KIMRA... IT'S ON GIRLFRIEND!!! We will add a volleyball match to the roster of Band Camp 2009, hope you will be there!! It's starting to sound more like summer camp now, lol how fun!!

Well I would assume that they would check the birthdates on both (DL and BC) and see that they match exactly and that would be enough to verify you are you. On the other had it couldn't really hurt to bring your marriage certificate with you JUST in case you get some border agent who's a stickler for some reason!!

The rooms at the Lucerna are pretty standard, like what you would find at a Holiday Inn... Nicer than a Motel 6 but not quite as nice as a Marriott or Hilton. The rooms nothing fancy and sadly there is no mini-fridge or microwave. I did notice last time I was there they had room rates posted for Suites and Jr. Suites so it's possible that those upgraded rooms have what you need, it would cost more but if it's that important I'm sure your coordinator could get you a price estimate on how much more one of those rooms would be.. If you do stick with the basic room there is a coffe pot so you could warm the bottles in the pot of hot water, and for the rice cereal you could run some of the bottled water they provide through the coffee pot and mix a little hot water with room temp bottled water so the cereal would be warm... Sorry I can't be of more help!!

Lol Amber... How awesome for you! I IT!! Tell us more, we want all the details!!!

I would be happy to make one for you, just tell me what your goal is... This is the site I used if you (or anyone else) wants to make one of thier own: http://server.blinkyou.com/blinkiemaker/#instructions

Lol, go ahead rub it in... I was just talking more about size reference I tried to find a pic with actual sized money but couldn't...

Every Bowl of soup I made in the in-room coffee pot at the Lucerna was made with tap water and I never got sick... At the higher end hotels they all have water filtration systems, I doubt they could get that high of a AAA star rating without having that for their guests!!

I can totally believe/relate to this fact!! Today was field day at my sons school and I played 5 games of volleyball (teachers and parents vs. the 8th graders) and couldn't believe how great my knees felt... It was like I was back in high school (I was on the volleyball team for 3 years) I was able to rum and slide with no pain. Of course to competive side of me took over on one play and I dove for the ball hitting my knees hard so now one knee is super bruised up, but I saved the ball and won us the serve for game point so it was totally worth it... We did win the match 3games to 2games!

I have heard that this is a very common occurance, just like stress can produce ulcers and other compications in a normal human body, the band seems to be a target for stress (maybe it has something to do with it being a foregin object that your body clamps down on) but you are not alone in this!!

Hey Renee, Sorry to hear things aren't great right now, with my 1st fill the first meal I had after the 3 liquid days was also a steak dinner and I ate more than you did, then around day 6 or 8 I really started feeling it!! Interestingly enough this time almost 6 days out from my 2nd fill I think it has loosened up some (or all the swelling from all my PB episodes has gone down) it really is a crap shoot. I am of the opinion that if you're not feeling restriction and you have the money and availability to get a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th) then you should DO IT!! I think of it like filling your car with gas, if you want your car (the band) to take you where you want to go (weight-lossville) then you have to fill it up with gas... Neglecting your car (band) by letting it sit in the garage unfilled means it's going to take longer to get to you final destination! Again there are things that get in the way of being able to fill up your car (usually money issues) but if you look at a lot of the members here that have met their long term weigh loss goals they have all had many fills (Dolittle, LisaL, Clynn, etc) Untill the restriction kicks in or you are able to get another fill some people suggest drinking ice cold water before eating to tighten up your pouch.... YOU CAN DO IT BABE!!

Congrats sweetie, just keep your eye on the prize- day by day 1 pound at a time and you'll be at your goal before you know it!
