  1. Happy Banderversary. Thanks for updating your progress for us!!! Mimi
  2. Congratulations on your success. You look totally awesome and slender!!!!! Mimi
  3. Heartfelt prayer on the way. Hurry and heal and congrats on the pain pump!!!! Mimi
  4. Allie, I am so sorry about your back, that is horrible!!!! I hope you get well before your surgery. I was happy to read that you will have a pain pump, yippee!!!! Mimi
  5. Hurry and get well, P, we are waiting for you to post your experiences!!!! Mimi
  6. When I talked to them a few weeks ago it was around $350. Go to their website and ask the price. You don't have to sign up for a package deal, I was just going to go for one fill because my practice was making me wait too long. I didn't end up going to the FCU because my surgeon finally agreed to see me. Mimi
  7. I am thrilled that so many ppl are posting about their PS. As mine gets closer I will post pictures and more commentary. Skinny jeans, your pictures are very inspirational and I will be following you closely. I don't have anyone "close" enough to take such honest pictures. Mimi
  8. Good for you and congratulations! Mimi
  9. I hate to give you advice when I don't know what your nutritionist considers soft....why don't you give the office a call and that way you can make your decision with greater confidence. Enjoy the movie either way, I am eager to see it, also. Mimi
  10. Bill, congratulations on your very good health status. You have done well!!! Mimi
  11. That is insane, can't you call a few more places even if you have to travel 30 minutes? Mimi
  12. Hi, Tracy, thanks for the rec, I am always looking for something new to try that is easy. Mimi
  13. Wow, you did in 6 months what it took me a year to do!!! Awesome!!! Keep up the good work!!! Mimi
  14. Allie, I am happy you are asking questions and staying active posting. Very informative post, Sue, thank you. Mine isn't til March 16th, but arms and bewbies are Jan 4th. I still can't decide whether or not to get implants with my lift!!! Mimi
  15. It is a long journey, isn't it? You are in Bandster Hell, waiting for fills to take you to restriction. If you do not want to gain wt like I did, start exercising and limit your food intake like you are on a regular old fashioned wt loss diet. Restriction will come, but maybe not in full force til your 3rd fill. The Dec 2 fill should help you control your appetite and portions. Best wishes, Mimi
  16. Denise, you Rock!!!!! Props to you!!!! Mimi
  17. I agree that you need to do 24-48 hours on liquids only, then proceed slowly through soft/mushies, small quantities at a time. Since you can keep liquids down you are not in an emergency situation, but if things aren't better by Monday maybe having 1cc taken out would be good. Best wishes, Mimi
  18. I am so excited for you both and can't wait for each of your posts!! Mimi
  19. Wow, I feel so bad for you!!! That really stinks. I, too, am glad you were at goal when it happened. Good luck to you and I hope you can save to get the surgery you want in Mexico. Mimi
  20. What a great B'day present!!!!! Happy Birthday. You are blessed. Mimi
  21. May I ask why you want to have this surgery? I don't mean to be critical or mean, just curious. Mimi
  22. I was glad to see that Daniel finally posted a big number as did Shay. I agree, Tracey did better OFF the show then she did on it and was looking good at the follow up. Mimi
  23. Hi, BB, I am glad you got some restriction from this fill. I hope you are at your sweet spot, that would be great!!! Mimi
