    Yesterday I picked up a double bloom pink weeping cherry tree. She's 5 feet tall and all full of buds. We had to lower the back seat of the explorer and she hung out the back window. My 7 year old daughter, Roxanne held on to her pot with every turn I made, saying "it's ok Carolyn, were almost home"
  18. I'm one who misses restriction, If I could just get water and Protein shakes down was all I was concerned about, with No reflex!!! It was always my greatest weight-loss stage. It's such a fine line. You have to know Your own body.
  19. Is very Modern and Beautiful, Private rooms, Granite everywhere. It's know as a teaching hospital, constant care, good nurses.I don't know anything about Dr. Arturo Rodriguez. I used Dr. Sanchez. Good Luck

    I'm crying all day long. The rain just stopped and a bluebird was up on the deck, it was staring at me though the window. I said Blossom is that you...I opened the door and gave it some crackers. My heart aches. Greg, Rose of Sharon is such a beautiful bush. I love roses but the deer poulation here, eats them away. I have redwood trees in my sisters honor and another for our dear Buddy-lab, right where his dog house was. Blossom gets a flowering tree, a Mimmosa or Lilac. Please help me choose something deer tolarable. I have the perfect spot picked out, and will post a pic when planted.
  21. I’m in total shock. My deepest sympathy to Philip and her family. I’m sadden and my heart feels heavy in grief. I remember when Blossom came into lives, I remember her posting pics of herself and asking us to vote which one to use as an avatar. Then I remember her picture gone and I asked her why and she remarked “I live in a small town and a bariatric doctor just opened an office here and will be doing bands. I don’t want to be recognized.” I know she often talked of gardening and I’ve decided to plant a flowering tree in her honor. It will grow in view of the lake. Carolyn you will be missed.
  22. Not any more. Ann-Marie was asked to "leave" due to poor patient relations... Kathy should get a hold of Dr. Sanchez with her concerns, if there is anything wrong with her band, Dr Sanchez will fix it. If it's just a matter of fills? There are several doctors who will fill non-Inamed bands in the Bay Area of California. The Swedish band or AMI band is not considered cheaper. It's like comparing the VG band to the 10cc band or to the 4cc band. Bands should be chosen per person's size at time of placement as well as fat around the stomach. Lisa, Give it to me!
  23. Hi Brenda Check out www.ready4achange.com this is Dr. Sanchez's websight. PM me for any other questions
  24. Jamie, sending prayers for you.
  25. Hi Isa and welcome to LBT. I know Dr. Sanchez personally, he is an outstanding surgeon! His staff is wonderful. You will be well taken care of. I have never met Dr. DeLaGarza. Monterrey Mx is a very large city with several medical universities and hospitals, there are several band doctors utilizing the modern facilities that city has to offer. Feel free to PM me with any others questions reguarding Dr. Sanchez.
