I don;t understand why anyone would leave OCC instead of sleeping there for the night! If I could have stayed there my whole stay I would have or at lest for a second night

Hi I stood at both, it all depends on what you want. I First stood at the Marriott cause of their reputation and new I’d be safe. I also was meeting another poster so since we were getting band on the same day & both of us were traveling solo we met & stood @ the Marriott However when I went back for my fill by myself I wanted to stay close to the clinic & I would be taxiing to other doctors for Consultations on plastic surgery,so I stood @ the Lucerna & was very happy there to! I think the Marriott was more business type where LUCERNA wasn’t, I do think I would go back to the Lucerna again instead of the Marriott. For the record I’m a very fussy person - VERY fussy

Hi- I have to ask - the $4000 BL & Aug were the only things you got done? cause if you look on the first page of this thread you'll see the prices Cosmed gave me But I would have a few things done at one time, so I'm just wondering if that's why you paid 4000

I've been there twice & never saw Or heard of Dr. Martinez, wonder if he left Dr. Q, cause there is another Doc there his name is Dr. Carlos Castañeda Reichert :-?

Thanks Lisa - My brother in law had emphysema & just wouldn't stop smoking, however it was conjunctive heart failure that he died from shame...............BUT WOW your tummy looks wonderful unbelievable wonderful....

Thanks tootsie, it's been rough, it's also been non stop trying to get his daughter(that will live with us) settled in and signed up at the local Community college. she's 17, turns 18 in Oct. but her mom died 4 yrs ago & there's just 1 aunt on her mom side and us. so she chose here plus My husband is her Godfather.......... So it's all around hard these days

Holy crap - I haven't been around to check any threads - sorry peeps My bro-inlaw passed away in my house on the 25th, so between my dog on the 14th & him on the 25th i've been way out of it but thanks everyone to posting Lena

Thanks I'll take a look at those links. I have a ways to go before I make a TT discission. I hate the scar

He he he- that was cute

I think it all depend on where your fat goes..... Like I'm all B & B- belly & boobs. I was a 1x 5'3 193#'s My back was a 42 D cup. if that helps any......

Well I got my second fill only .4 which brings me to a even 2cc. for some reason I really don't think this .4cc is gonna do anything, but we shall see I'm only down to 178, I sure thought I'd be losing faster, I think I'm ready to start hitting the gym. My son works @ one so I think I'll start going when he's there.....

I forgot, But KSK did you get your fill yet? If so how did it go? and did you ever figure about submitting the forums? :-?

:-h He he he I just answered you on your thread.........

I think OCC gives baby fills Cause I felt ok like the first 10 days losing 3 pounds the first week then another 2.5 pounds. But from that time till now I've gained back 1.5 - 2 pounds I go Monday for a second fill. I've really never felt any restriction. We shall see I'll let you know how it all goes..

You look great-

Ok so here's my deal. And I don't know if it's good or bad, I seriously can eat anything. I haven't eaten steak. I’m not the best chew chew chewer, even when I think I chewed something good, I really didn’t. So I think I would have to chew it too much & it may be too much of a hassle so I won’t even try steak - LOL. I ate chicken wings, hamburger, PORK, I BBQ pork chops often cause I know I have No problem eating them, Baked beans, Pasta, U name it unfortunately I can eat it- yesterday I had half of a ham & cheese on potato bread sandwich! I do watch the doughy breads but I ate half a bagel with cream cheese this morning - I made sure I chewed it real good cause the last time I ate a bagel it got stuck! Pizza No problem French fries No problem any potato NO problem, I guess that's why I was at a stand still with my weight loss...... DOH! :-? LOL But I'm back losing - I had gained 3.5 pound after my 21 LD but since my first fill I lost those 3.5 plus another 2 pounds so I've cracked the 180 mark & found that very exciting. I’m averaging a weight loss of 6 pounds a month, Not the best BUT it’s better then nothing I go for my second fill Aug 3rd................... Good thread =D>

Good for you sawdawg. Doesn't it feel wonderful....... I most certainly can relate to the thing about pictures! I hate pictures...

OMG! You Go Girl! That's was awesome

OMG! The thought of losing 3 dogs in a year! I couldn't even begin to think how heartbreaking that was. I have Bear he's 3 and he keeps looking for Rocky. He keeps going to his food bowl and checking to see if his food is still there........ It's dry food & I can't bring myself to putting his bowl away yet. Thanks Dana

Oh Goodness. You would do that? Now I'm crying all over again.......... But it's a sweet cry, Thank you, I will pop over to your web site in a bit........ I'm sick over the thought of having to put him down, Knowing everytime I walk in the down He won't be wagging his tail greeting me, so excited that I've come home - All I could see right now is how sad he looked Thank You again, I'll be sure to check out your website Lena

Oh Wow I would have Never thought about that....... hummmmmmm an ice pack I know it's been days since I've come back And the thobbing has stop. It still good to have an idea of a few things to try and see what works; Thanks

Thanks ladies, The funny thing is I can eat just about anything! I've eatten eggs before, not a lot but have eatten them twice before this & No problem. The only thing I haven't eatten has been steak, I can eat anything - I am very surprised, but I could. I will have a portein drink tonight and if I need to have one later on - i will, cause all I have had today was that egg & 1 slice of toast... I have been stuck twice so I know what that feels like, this doesn't have that feeling, it feels like it gets tight & then lose like it has a heart beat sort of. It must be my nerves, Usually when I'm sad I eat. But not a thing today, - it's getting late, almost 8pm so I better make a portein shake thanks ladies

I have read that stress can cause ones band to get tight. I think that's whats going on, Tho I'm not stressed but have been crying since yesterday. I had to put my dog down, And it's heart breaking he was 9yrs old. 3 months ago his spleen burst, it had 2 masses growning, Cancer & even tho we saved him that night & removed all the cancer, Because the spleen burst those cancerous cells would cling on to other organs & with in 6 - 8 months I was told it would most likely be back............ So we've been treating Rocky real specail, We always took real good care of our dogs, We love them as family They are like my boys to me, they sleep with us & have a very comfory life............. However yesterday when I woke up I saw Rocky wasn't having a good day, BUT didn't think it would be his last hours! By noon I was in the Vets office & by 1:45 I had made the dicission to put him down he was bleeding internally & was getting weaker as the hours past...... So we've been very upset here. And Today my band is hurting, I feel like it's throbbing, I did eat a scrabled egg and slice of toast and drank 2 glasses of ice tea.......... But I'm not hungry and I'm getting worried about this feeling in my chest......... I don't want to start worring about this on top of losing my dog. I'm not nervous But far from happy right now............ I don't know what to do to stop this thumping in my chest It actually feels like it's thumping/throbbing & pray I don't slip my band! Could this feeling in my chest cause slippage?

Yeah I see- I went back and was reading! Oh well

LOL Thanks That was funny
