I am absolutely sure that my head is shaped wierd, so I can't. I actually envy the women that can pull that off!

I bought it on Ebay. I wish there was something we could take to make the rate of hair loss slow down as well!

For any of you in my shoes, I do use a product called Xfusion. You shake it on your head and it helps camoflauge the thin spots.

Now, I have SUPER THIN hair. I have for a long, long time. You can always see my scalp and I am scared to death of going bald. Here is a pict of the top of my head taken last week.

Weight before surgery 273 Surgery date 06/12/2012 Current weight 212 Goal weight 199 I want to see Onderland!!

Exercise will be a no go.. I screwed up my knee 2 weeks ago and it still isn't better. I am bummed because I was just recently released to do exercises. I had just started my elliptical again then tripped and fell and I have been limping ever since. I am thinking I am going to have to break down and go to the doctor. If it isn't better by next week, I will have to go.

My original goal of 220 was already met.. I hope I meet the 210 goal. I am going to go to Vegas this weekend so I will not be able to do my Monday weigh in until Tuesday.... hope Vegas is good to me!

So, I just ordered an 18 pack of the Premier RTD shakes from Costco. I don't have a Costco card so I ordered off of the internet. I sure hope they taste good! I hate all my protein powders. I have started drinking the Atkins RTD shakes. I have heard good things about Premier, so I went for it. Does anyone know the cost of the Premier RTD at Costco? And how many come in the case?

I eat nuts as well with no problem. One thing I do is measure my food. I measure about 2.5 ounces and eat that. If I eat too much, it does sit really heavy. I think my eyes still think I can eat a bigger portion, so, weighing out my food is a good idea for me. For example, the other night, I ate 2.5 ounces of pork steak and 1 ounce or brocolli for dinner. I measured so I knew exactly how much I ate. I did feel really full after, so next time, I am going to either forgo the broccolli, or if I really want that, I would decrease the meat by .5.

I meant bread

‎"Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted in one moment would you capture it or just let it slip?" - Eminem Don't let your opportunity slip away! Is surgery scary? Yes. Could there be complications? Yes. But look at your quality of life now. You wouldn't be looking into surgery if you were at a healthy weight. If the good outweighs the bad, go for it!

do you put the already cooked, smoked salmon in it?
