valleriek 7 Posted March 1, 2014 Brand new here! I am going with Dr. Illan on the 13th of March! I am an RN in northern MN, looking forward to some warmer weather!! My sister is going with me, I am a little nervous to leave 4 kiddos back home with the hubby, I will miss them. It is my spring break from my bachelor's program, so good timing. Hope it all goes as smoothly as possible! My friend Jen is a consultant for Dr. Illan, and has sent 9 others besides herself to him from up here in MN and they have had amazing results!!! I am so excited to be flying out in (gulp) 11 days!!! 3 Sleeveless n Seattle, Liongoddess57 and Bignosemonkeydog reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissCK 55 Posted March 3, 2014 Hi everyone. I'm here at Mi hospital waiting. And waiting. Going to go f'ing nuts. We got here at 7:30am and it's almost 1 and I want to pull my hair out. Nobody can tell me when I'm going. Had bloods and EKG, met everyone, in my room in the gown and compression socks on STARVING. Lol. Fuck me. 1 booniedog reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
