I think in most hypothyroid cases, well at least in mine they right Rx dosage seems to be a moving target. Although I must say with Armour I've been really stable. If I start crying for no reason, anxiety attacks, fatigue I know its time to go get it adjusted. -

Savannah.. I'm not following you.. LOL
I responded to a post about Twilight and Rob Pattinson.
Anyway, I was originally diagnosed hyperthyroid about 8 to 9 years ago. I did the medication to try and control or suppress a few hot nodules I think they called them for about 1 year. That didn't work so then they gave me radioactive iodine pill, which completely killed my thyroid. then, I tried synthroid felt awful. now i'm on Armour thryoid and I'm doing much better. I still haven't found my perfect dosage after. I have to go back and get my blood levels check because I've been on that diet pill Alli, which has helped me loose weight but I'm getting fatigued again which could mean my Armour thryoid dosage needs to be increased.

Anyway, I have hypothyroidism but was originally diagnosed hyperthyroid about 8 to 9 years ago. I did the medication to try and control my overactive thryoid, I had a couple of hot nodules I think they called them, for about 1 year. That didn't work so then I was given a radioactive iodine pill, which completely killed my thyroid, leaving me hypothyroid. Then, I tried synthroid felt awful. Now I'm on Armour thryoid and I'm doing much better. I still haven't found my perfect dosage after a couple of years.

I so loved the Sookie Stackhouse series! I read them before I read the Twilight series books. I really love the HBO show too! It closely follows the books. They tweak it here an there. I sooo love Eric! Well the book's Eric anyway. I can't wait for the 9th book "Dead and Gone" will be sold May 9, 2009! YESSS!

I'm most def going to pick up the GQ mag. At first I thought he was ordinary looking but add that personality and I love love love love him.
I liked the movie but it pales in comparison to the book. I agree the Edward in my head was so much more.
AND.. I may get in trouble with this one. I don't like the Jacob in the movie, well scratch that. I like him in the first movie but not for New Moon. New Moon Jacob is like double Twilight Jacob, in my head he is anyway.

Hi ladies,
I'm considering villas in this area. Any recommendations? Is anyone familiar with this area? I'm told the best area to get married is Nuevo Vallarta and Bucerias would be as good or a close second. Has anyone been there? What is the vibe like?
Thanks

Congrats! and welcome.
I was a Cabo bride for like a minute. I too wanted May. Now I'm getting married in Puerto Vallarta!
You'll find this forum so helpful.

No, I haven't set a date yet! I'm such a bobble head! I go on every direction and I need to focus! I haven't done the probably first important things. I don't have a date, I don't have colors, I don't have a dress. I'm very tom boyish. I haven't been dreaming or planning about my wedding since I was a little girl. I wish I was girly like that, but I'm not! I've been with my fiancee for almost 8 years and he finally popped the question to my shock! I was really OK with just living with him. I told people he was the Steadman to my Oprah.. LOL
I am leaning for October or November 2010. At first I wanted Cabo but it's pricier and seems very touristy I feel PV has more character. I know I love the we have direct flights!

Wow!
Thank you! I got engaged last Christmas and I can't decide on my color pallette I love all the colors! lol
AND everyone asks me what my colors are and I just shrug and say I don't know. I think I need to decide this soon. I'm so in denial I'm getting married LOL.

Thank you so much. Your insight has really made me feel better. I want the hand over the planning to a coordinator and since I'm completely handing over my trust I want to make sure it is to the right person and their team. I'm just a nervous nelly. I just need to make a decision. Believe me I get so annoyed with myself for over thinking things.
I will look into Prisar Vallarta.
Thanks again.

Hi Ladies,
I'm a newbie with not many posts, but I am a lurker! I tried searching for a thread but couldn't find anything.
I am trying to decide between a coordinator from the US near my home. She doesn't have any experience with Mexico destination weddings or any destinations weddings outside the US. I've met with her and love her and her work. She is super organized and is great on email. With her I feel like she'll have my best interest and will have "my back" but am worried that since she's a newbie things may not go right, yet again I'm paying her so I don't know if things don't go write.
I've also contacted Dazzling Details. I've seen their website read their reviews and love their work. I've even talked to Kristin and she is very like able, answers emails quickly, etc. I'm certain my wedding would come out gorgeous.
Here are my concerns. All the wedding coordinators I've interviewed at home told me they wouldn't take my money and pay vendors, I would pay vendors directly. This way I can be sure they are not getting kickbacks and I know where my money is going.
I've also read a lot in the posts about coordinators in Mexico getting a kickbacks from the vendors or inflating the costs of things. For example, a WC might say flowers are $500 and you call the vendor directly and find out they are really $200. My concern with Dazzling Details is that they take my money and use it to pay vendors directly. I've also read a post that a caterer costs $70 per person and DD charging $140 per person for the same caterer.
Should I be worried? Or does the means justify the ends with DD? I'd have a gorgeous wedding. I don't know which WC to go with. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi ladies!
I tried searching the forums but couldn't find any matches... so please don't hurt me
One of my concerns is that some of the hotels I've emailed for proposals are telling me the music off curfew is on average about 11pm. Are you all ending your party by 11pm? My people love to party I think 11pm the party would just be getting good!
Any ideas on how to deal with? Know of any venues where the music/noise off curfew is after 11pm?
Thanks!

Congrats! This forum is very helpful!

Congrats! Happy planning.

I've done a search and have read great reviews. However, most of the reviews are about the food and how great they've heard it is. Not anyone with their account of their experience. Also, I'd like to see more pictures. So if anyone has any pictures of their wedding there. Please post or PM me. Thank you!

I'm considering Casa Natalia for wedding and reception. I just received a quote from Veronica Zavala for 75 people.
I've searched the forums but can't find any bride's experiences with this place. If you have had your wedding at Casa Natalia please post your experience here or PM me. I would love to see some photos as well.
Thanks!

Congratulations! Ixtapa how awesome I wanted Ixtapa or Zihuatanejo but I was greatly discouraged for its location even though it has an airport!
I've decided on a Baja Mexico wedding... Cabo.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome! This is a great site. I've spent many hours on it already and I feel overwhelmed! I feel after reading many reviews that I'd ideally would
like to hire a wedding planner/coordinator
from home. I'm a spaz and iPhone junky so I
want quick email responses and the peace of
mind that someone is looking out for me.
Unfortunately my budget is tight. They run
from $2000 to $5000. My next board search
will be typical cabo budget is. I don't want to have an unrealistic expectation for what I can afford!

Marival Resort & Suites Nuevo Vallarta-Contact info?
in Puerto Vallarta Accommodations & Site
Posted
Marival Resort & Suites Nuevo Vallarta, Nuevo Vallarta
Hello,
Has anyone stayed here? I've been calling 1-877-222-0302 since yesterday morning. Left a message and emailed with no response. Is this normal?
I'm planning my trip for May and tried booking online through their website and after I submitted my contact info and credit card info I got an error page so I want to make sure I didn't book before trying again, however, it seems to be their customer service is not on point so I'm considering another hotel.
Thank you!
