Hmm.. what do I like about my body... this was hard, and I really had to search for something. I have beautiful, well proportioned feet. (They are packed into size 12 shoes, but they are lovely.) I am fine boned... if you just looked at my wrists and ankles, you would think I was thin. I have very long legs.. I think it is a pain because most pants are too short for me, but other people seem to think long legs are wonderful. And... my mom said this tonight, I do have high cheekbones and the straight lovely hair of my part-Indian heritage. (It is colored and crunched now, but it is straight as a board.) Once, long ago, in the 70's, when "cher" hair was the vogue, I had straight black hair down to my waist. I got hit on several times, chubby and all, because of my hair. What is it with guys and long, silky hair?) So, thank you for your advice. I did find some parts of me that I don't hate and I dug up a couple of fond, (hot), college memories to boot.

This was self-revealing.. not only did I think of some nice things about my appearance, but I had to wonder why it was so hard to think of anything complimentary about my appearance. I will have to think on that and discuss it with my therapist when next I go in.

I do have one attribute that I am grateful for.. I have a wonderful, quirky sense of humor that just pops out at the oddest times. That is my best feature.

Good job Paula!! I had the longer than waist length hair back in the 80's right up through a couple of months ago. (I called it "crack length") I also had some, ah-hum, interesting experiences because of my hair. ;)

BTW, I always wished I had long legs. :(( My sister does. Long and skinny. She's six feet tall.

did she just call me a "mama's boy"?

[puts a mark on jena's list]

and paula says I'm red blooded, but it's under consideration as to whether I am "normal"?

Ok... second fill June 22: total weight lost at clinic: 35.5 pounds

second fill: 1.4 cc (total of 6.4 cc in a 10 cc band)

weight loss after 2 days: 1.5 additional pounds

I feel tremendous restriction today, two days after the second fill. Where I used to eat three Carnitas (three flour tortillas stuffed with succulent soft roasted pork), I barely was able to finish one with a little arroz on the side. I feel hugely bloated just after the one. WOW..... this is fabulous... it's a few hours after the meal right now, and I couldnt eat another one if you paid me.

As soon as a moderator approves them, they are available. Just dont laugh. Dawnie didnt laugh when she saw me. Ute about wet herself because she was trying not to laugh. (It didnt work.... she laughed).

:o DO NOT BELIEVE THIS MAN !!!!! THIS IS NOT TRUE - I did almost wet my pants ... but only because from the first second I met Bill, he was making jokes and didn't give us a break :P

Hey .... remember that skinny lady wanting to join us after her fill ? I think she really did not have our sense of humor :D

The secretary wanted to go with us because she saw how much fun we were having. You're right about the skinny lady.

I walked into the room, acting like the hunchback of notre dame... breathing funny, face all displaced... and said in a strange voice... "helllloooooo.... I'm ..." oops. what happened in Roswell stays in Roswell. I can't tell you what name I said.

The secretary is Darlene's daughter, maybe we could have gotten a deal :D
