Mrgrta you are incredibly wonderful and that middle incision is going to fade to about nothing. I can't get over how well you are doing. It was kind of you to post the pics for us. It gives me hope!!! Mimi

I, too, take several meds, pills and capsules and have 7cc in a 10cc band. I agree everyone is different, but I think unless your doc said no, you could start taking them, one a time, slowly like JayTee said. Mimi

Need to "add" 25 lbs to reach 40 BMI, any ideas?
Mimilou2004 replied to sandy00's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That is a large amount of wt to gain in 3 wks. Are you sure it's worth it? Especially if you have never weighed that much before? -

Does anyone eat fruit in this forum???
Mimilou2004 replied to soocalchic's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I eat a lot of fruit, I am the opposite of Jachut as I find fruit easier than veggies. I have trouble with apples unless I peel them, but other than that I enjoy everything from blueberries to cantaloupe. Everyone is different in their tolerance, though. Good luck. Mimi -

Shalee's October Overhaul
Mimilou2004 replied to Shalee04's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Shalee, I am so happy for you!!! Keep up the protein intake and vitamins to heal well. Mimi -
Josiebies and Danimal...I have given this a lot of thought and I now think it is important to keep up with your wt loss by buying smaller clothes. It makes the self image adjustment realer sooner and when you have to go shopping trying on so many things it forces you to look at your body and acknowledge the changes. Josiebies, good luck on your surgery, hope to hear from you soon after. Mimi

Hey 50 & over gang We have a new spot
Mimilou2004 replied to IndioGirl55's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Hey Trisha, your goals sound do-able and realistic. We are the same age and the wt has gone very slowly, but it is going!!!! Welcome and good luck. PS, maybe after a while you will change your mind about the boy toy, LOL!!!! Mimi -
I met my first goal
Mimilou2004 replied to T&tummy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
T, I am facing the same dilemma, especially since I am much older than you with slower metabolism. The last time I was this wt I was 2 sizes smaller. It is said that every time we gain wt we are FATTER with less lean muscle mass. I believe it. So when I was younger a bigger portion of my wt was muscle which is trimmer than flabby fat. That is why I am working out trying to restore some lean muscle and burn fat. Good luck to you. Mimi -

Angie, you look wonderful and that dress is beautiful. Keep up the good work. Mimi -
Shalee, thanks for the update. I hope your results are all you wanted. Mimi

If it tastes good and you want more, it is probably a slider food. Even tortilla chips are slider food for me, along with the salsa, sour cream, and guacamole that accompany the chips. Mimi
