    Passport needed??

    Your better off getting a passport! My first trip to Mex I took my birth cert and almost didn't get on the plane. I had to have an emergency afidavid (to prove that the birth cert was really me) by a notery right at the airport that cost me $20 cash.

    What size do you want to be?

    I'm 5'5. Started at 18 pants, 3X top. I'm now in 10 pants and Lrg/XL top. I credit my legs to all the life-cycling, but I have that muffin middle look, rolls over the waist-band.

    This waiting is hard.

    Vent ON! I used low interrest credit cards to get my band, It took a year to pay off but in that year I began to live again. Before banding I was a bottom-less pit. I NEVER felt full. Now it's about 1 cup of anything solid (chewed very well) and I'm full.

    Potty-Training Boys???

    Boys....they take time. No multi-tasking. I've been reading this thread off and on for days...don't have anything to offer, I'm just glad my 4 year old is completly trained and wiping his own...s I have used Disneyland as a bribe, shame on me. It's so cute when he comes out of the bathroom proclaiming "we're going to Disneyland" My DD was trained at 2. It's just got to be boys...

    I need some advice

    I believe Inamed recomends 1.3cc's for the 9.75/10 band and 3cc's for the VG band on the first fill. I have 1.3cc's in a 9.75 and Im a tad tight to just right. We're all so different. It's better to go back for more than to you back cause your over filled and in pain.
