Hey everyone- cOCO CONGRATS! You are looking great too. Well another day..I have to be 200 or less by 4/2 when I see Baggs again. I weighed myself thid morning I was 208 gotta keep trying.

I enjoy everyone of these posts and am learning off them. Let's move forward EVERYONE. Ok so Just got back from vacacille fro my fill. Baggs gave me 1cc I almost chickened out but he said I usually give people 2 cc for their 1st fill. anyway I drank the water and on the way home I felt a lump inmy throat and I feel like I have stuff in my throat. I dunno I have to see if i am able to drink more this evening I will keep u all posted. Thanks fro the good luck wishes tomorrow. I just hope I dont say anything stupid becasue I am so darn lightheaded from not eating.

Thanks Tina. I needed those words I was getting worried about todays fill. Becuase I want this job at VSP so so bad!! I sure wish and pray for the best for you. I like your ay of thinking you are a person who speaks her mind. I need to learn to be that way at times.

Good Morning everyone! Today I go and get my 2nd fill. Can I get your opinion on this? I had .5 the last time and now I want to ask baggs to give me 1cc. I dont know if I should I am so afraid of being too tight and being ill by my interview appt tmoroow morning. What do you guys think? I was even thinking of asking him to give me .75 than making an appt a few weeks later just in case. I dunno if they will even do that cause Iknow appts are hard to come by. What are opinions of this. How many cc's do you all get at your fill appts typically?

Riley- I know you can do it. You are a very determined person. I can tell by your success so far. Gurl I do all those things but the beer but I do the wine..I surprised myself and drank a whole bottle one night with a friend. Now that is bad!! but keep getting abck on track. I decided not to even touch the wine anymore which I determined is probably why I dont lose the last 8lbs to get to onederland. That means more to me than a glass of chardonnay or scoop of ice cream.
