First Fill Under Fluoro and No Restriction
Mimilou2004 replied to isaviolinist's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
When is your next fill? I didn't get restriction til 6cc. With the fluro I am surprised he didn't fill you to restriction, but maybe he was concerned about swelling happening. Good luck and let us know what happens. Mimi -
I sure am enjoying this thread!!!! Mimi

Are co-workers going to notice?

Mimilou2004 replied to karnold's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
karnold, I was banded Oct 7th and a few months ago had your problem. A small unfill was what did the trick. I, too, was scared to death that they would take out too much, but this is their business and they know how to help us. Please go see your doc at least for a talk and evaluation. Let us know how you do. By the way, after my unfill I did continue to lose wt, but I am one who has to watch my calorie intake and exercise. Mimi -
Yhanks for the advice, yes trust in your PS is paramount. Mimi

I loved your Mom story and it brought a smile to my face. I will get some cute panties ahead of time like you suggested. I have a question.....when they tightened your muscles and pulled down the skin what was the affect on the port and tubing? I am worried about that. Mimi

I always wanted a new nickname so I stole from my dog!!! I really like being called Mimi by new friends. And my dog doesn't care!!!! Mimi

You cat lovers are hysterically funny, but I soooo get it!!!! My time is coming, too, and I can't wait. Laura, thanks for the binder info, I will wait til I find out what my PS wants before I buy anything. Oh, gosh, I can't wait to get out of these grannie pnties and into something cute and dare I say, sexy? The nutrition info was great and I printed it out. Mimi

Wow, Laura, congratulations on your size 10!!!!! I started out at size 24 and hope to make size 10, but size 12 will be OK, if that is where I end up. Good for you buying new clothes and getting all prettied up!!!! Do you have to wear a compression garment? Mimi

I had no idea how happy the ticker could make me until I finally understood how to put one up thanks to another poster the other day!!! Post when you can and stay well. Mimi

I had to laugh at the mental image of droopy drawers because I have been thinking about posting about mine. I am not quite ready for new ones, but it will be soon. Can't wait for my TT in a few months so I can wear sexy undies and NOT bloomers and granny panties, LOL!!!! Mimi

Glad you decided to post. Good luck with your journey. Mimi

Daren, sorry to say you are in a place called Bandster Hell. That is the period between getting banded and getting enough fills to get some restriction going. The best advice I can give you is stick to a modified calorie high protein diet and do exercise. Be careful or you will regain 12 pounds like I did!!!! Best wishes, Mimi

Thanks, Suzanne. Mimi

What is a FTT and TL? I don't recognize the abbreviations. Mimi

Lellow, I miss your posting!!!! Congrats on losing 20 more pounds and on your subsiding batwings. Sounds like you are doing great. Are the scars fading yet? How about some new pictures....dressed or undressed. Keep up the good work. Best wishes, Mimi
-
I can't see them either, hopefully it will fix itself. Mimi
-
Laura, you are healing so well and look amazing. You are a doll for sharing your progress with us. I hope you are sleeping better now. Mimi
-
You have reason to be concerned and ask good questions. Personally I would share my concerns with her and tell he you would like your total fill measured next time. Good luck, Mimi

Julieann, first off comgratulations on your incredible wt loss, that is awesome!!!! Second, did you try peeling the peach? Peach and pear skins are not possible for me to digest, but if I peel them I can enjoy the fruit. And this is a great peach season!!!! Best wishes. Mimi

?? for experienced bandsters
Mimilou2004 replied to katwmn63's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I worry about this subject, too, and keep Phenergan around. I hope I never have to use it, though. I hope you feel better soon. Mimi -
3000 dollars per fill? OMG!!! Mimi
-
Do you have any restriction at all? It would be a good to start writing down you food/drink intake and exercise. It is hard to give you guidance not knowing how much you are eating and exercising. Best wishes, Mimi
