[Teresita 0]

I will be there with bells on. I am scheduled for a fill today and I have been pbing anyhow so it will be a margarita or mashed potatoes. LOL

[Carebear22803 0]

too bad, but also good! yay for fills! I could tell that I needed my 2nd before because my 1st one didn't make any difference at all. But now I'm wondering how I can tell when I need another one. I am gradually being able to eat more and more...I don't want to gain weight or wait too long on a plateau...how do I decide?

[LSasha 0]

Yes I will be there.

My doctor's protocol: As long as I'm losing betw/ 1-2 a wk, I'm good and don't need a fill.

Well he didn't give me a fill. My weight was exactly the same as it was the last time I saw him. It was good that I didn't gain anything but I didn't loose anything either. I need to cut out the carbs bread, ice cream, chips etc. and I need to exercise. Walking is good, I just need to do it. I was down when I left his office but I have to go through that first. Now I'm ok and will get back on track.

[Carrie22803 0]

you can do it, you are stronger than me, that's for sure

it's hard when you are the same weight for awhile, I have definitely been there, and I did get really down, but it turned around for me, and it will for you, too

[Teresita 0]

Thanks Carrie, I know it will be fine.

yay for our meeting!! I had a lot of fun meeting everybody, and being scared by 2 of you aftrewards while shopping!! (you know who you are) I can't wait until our next meeting wherever it is, and guess what? I actually remembered to bring my digital camera but forgot it was in my purse until I left Friday's. Too bad the service was horrible, but that's alright, we handled it, or rather, teresa did! Love you all and see you soon!!!

Yes it was a great time..I enjoyed meeting you Carrie. Hope to see you again soon.

Teresa, I called my insurance tonight and your Doctor participates with my plan. I'm calling tomorrow. You better be ready for that road trip. We gotta get Connie to go with us too.

I'll let you know what his waiting period is like.

Getting excited!!!!

Christine you know I will go. I recommend my doctor and facility to absolutely everyone. They are awesome and have their stuff together. I'm ready, call connie because you can have someone to sit in on your consult. My sister went with me the first time and then my buddy Linda went after that.

I enjoyed myself and I would not say the service was horrible, it just could have been better. For you guys that already left, the waitress came out and told me that the check was short $10. I told her I put my in and stepped out front. I waited for the manager to come out but he didn't. She thought she was going to get the full tip. NOOOO. Maybe she will make herself available to the customers during the meal and not just at the end.

I won't say anynames but C and L what did you guys do to Carrie? She should have taken pictures of your guys acting up in the store.

I see we are going to have a MD LBT Social Group seperate from the MD LBT Support Meetings.

I bet you did forget that camera, you were too busy checking for those Lane Bryant coupons missy:laugh
