  3. Hello All, well I have started my LSD on Tuesday and it REALL SUCKS, but I have totally stuck w/ it and I lost 5 lbs so far....so I think I CAN DO THIS!!!Cindy
  4. Hello all, I will be going to TJ on April 8 to b banded w/ Dr. Kuri...I know a few people who have been w/ him....so if u dont mind, what is ur opinion of dr. Kuri, cause I've heard nothing but good things about him and his staff....Cindy
  5. Hello everyone, I've been reading ur posts for a while, my name is Cindy, and I live in Camdenton-near Lake of the Ozarks, so I'll just pipe n about the hair loss....i am a hairdresser and biotin is what i tell my clients to take for hair loss...also u can buy a hair/skin/nails combo. at wal-Mart or any drug store....Anyway I have been worrying about that issue myself...I have to say it does scare me alittle, I have VERY thick hair so I could afford to lose a little but dont want to.....So u guys think the key is protein??? Also I am being banded on April 8th in Mexico....Cindy
  6. Hi mail Mom, I will b going to Mexico on April 8th to be banded, who was ur Dr? And how was ur experience there? Hope u dont mind all the ?'s.....Cindy
  7. I did sign up, but it only let me view....not real great w/ computers.....I will try tomorrow when the kids aren't bothering me ( 2 boys -have to go break them up, always bickering at my house) LOL! Thanks, Cindy
  8. Wow GiGi that was a really cool idea and it looks great, you are on the ball!! I couldn't believe you already had most on it.... Good Job Girl!!
  9. GiGiRN--Hi, I am also going to MX but on 4-08-08 to Dr Kuri, I think they r in the same hospital, but we will just miss each other....so good luck
  10. Hi Turler--yes I am self pay $7500 inTJ Mexico w/ Dr Kuri, they r the nicest people ever...........I just read CadenceMarch's statement about her Dr office being rude and that is the way I feel about MOST Dr. offices in USA....like they r better than us, if they just had the customer service as the Mexico Dr's .....Dr. Kuri's office has called me several times over the past few months just to see if I had any ?'s or needed anything and late one night Dr. Kuri called me himself just to see if I needed to talk to him(played phone tag w/ his office one day)YES THE DR, called me!!! Couldn't believe it myself, I had never had one that cared enough to call....Customer Service means alot and to treat us like humans would b nice....
  11. Well Turler, I'm from Missouri and i have 2 boys(10 & 6) and I am a hairdresser and I am partners n a small shop w/ a friend, so I have very long days on my feet and my back and knees r starting to bother me alot from being overweight....I went to a siminar 2yrs ago on LB (w/ no health insurance) and decided I had to change my life and do so mething for myself for once....don't get me wrong I love my family but as mothers always do, we put everything above ourselves....So here I go w/ 29 days and counting to a new me.....Cindy:thumbup:
  12. Hi everyone, I have been looking around on this siye for a few months and haven't posted much, but feel like I fit a little better here. My surgery date is April 8th in Mexico w/ Dr Kuri....My friend and I are going down together, her husband had it done there last year and now its our turn..Can't wait, but also VERY nervous:thumbup:
  13. I'm right there w/ya my surgery date is 4/08, and I have 2 vey active boys. I also am a hairdresser so I'm hoping to be back to work 1 week after. I wish u the best of luck we deserve it..............:thumbup:
  14. I was so glad to hear your surgery went well, I'm from the Lake of the Ozarks area and just got my surgery date for April 8th.

Thanks:confused2:
