I'm SO jealous! I can't wait for my fill! July 6th can't come sooner!! Maybe I'll call and see if they have a cancellation list, and I can get in sooner...hmmm. Congrats!

I was thinking that same thing; I didn't have surgery with Dr. Kuri, but I'm driving down there next Saturday for a little unfill. Are we all close together?? lol

Yep, I'm in NC so I'm doing my fills here. If/when my sister comes out to see Kuri for HER surgery, I'll do a fill when I come out with her. That's down the road though.

As for my 7 1/2 inches...here's the breakdown. I measured the morning of surgery in the hotel in TJ (threw the tape measure in the suitcase!) and I measured these spots and have lost this much as of 6/2...

Arms -1/2 inch

Bust -1 inch

Bra Band -1 inch

Waist -1 1/2 inches

Abdomen -0

Hips -2 inches

Thighs -1 inch

Calves -1/2 inch

You know what? I forgot to add in my other arm, thigh, and calf. That's another 2 inches, which makes it a total of 9 1/2 inches lost off this fat ole body. Notice that I lost NOTHING from the worst part of me, which is that flabby C-section belly part, ugh.

Anyway, I'll take it! I'll even change my sig for that!

Sarah and Esmerelda, you two could share Taxi/transportation fare and go together for your fills. Save money, AND meet a Band Buddy! Fun!

I posted on Dr. Kuri's board that I was going for a fill to see if anyone wanted to go and I had a few resposes, but I have been tight since yesterday (getting closer to that time of the month) and I don't know if I want a fill now!!! I am scared!

I have a question about restriction....what does it feel like? Do you get a physical feeling with restriction? I ate lunch and since then I have pains..not horriable, throughout my diaphram area. I was thinking maybe this is restriction? Or gas....haven't figured it out yet! Any input on what restriction feels like. I had my first fill on Monday.... I have heard it is common for the fill to actually hit you a few days later too...any experience there?

Thanks for your time

TTYL
