Congratulations on this big milestone!!! Can't wait for onederland either!! Whoop whoop!

I take all mine as well. Plus extras (like biotin) for hair & nails. I also get my Protein in every single day. I agree, I think it just has to run its course. :-/

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look at the Xfusion. I would be afraid to shave my head cuz I'd be afraid it wouldn't grow back!

I think it's going slow. I'm down 59 pounds since surgery. 5-18-12. That's 4 months. I feel like I'm not doing as well as I should. My hair is coming out by the handfuls but the weight isn't coming off. I work out 5 days a week & eat less than 800 calories. 70-90 Protein. I'm really stressed. How r u doing?

I'm in Richmond (Lexington area) as well. I was sleeved by Dr Weiss as well. 5-18-12. On MyFitnessPal, I'm KristieAtkinson.

Before: 338 Current: 229 Total lost: 109 50 Pre op 59 since surgery on 5-18-12

At 3 months out, (almost a month ago) i noticed that more & more hair is coming out. I take 3 Biotin a day (plus a ton of other vitamins) & started using Fall Fight shampoo. It doesn't seem to be helping. This is a picture of what comes out after I shower while styling my hair. This doesn't include what comes out during the day. (which is a lot!) I am starting to look very seriously at hats. :-/

You can take one now. Wouldn't hurt anything. Extra vitamins just get peed out.

Try making the crust smaller. Like a small size pizza. It cooks more thoroughly if you do that.

I would wait until after you lose weight. I have gone from a full C down to a small B after 100 pounds lost. And I swear they are getting smaller! :-( I still have 100 pounds to lose so I may end up needing to get them lifted & some put back in. But I can always buy a good bra & make them look decent.

Congrats! I broke into the century club this morning too! Bye bye 100 pounds!

This is the recipe for the cauliflower pizza I made on another thread. I have never had it with lasagna bake. http://www.recipegirl.com/2012/01/16/cauliflower-crust-hawaiian-pizza/

My all time favorite work out song is "Remember the Name" by Fort Minor. Great beat & super motivating lyrics. What are your favorite tunes for the gym? :-)

I love all the Mio flavors but my favorites are the Mango Peach & the Blueberry Lemonade.

I posted a great recipe on here for tuna patties. They are delicious.

I found the Au Jus gravy in a jar where the rest of the jar gravy was. I had it on the list but just happened to look down & see it.

I confess that: * sometimes I miss ICE CREAM!!! * I compare myself to others success & get really frustrated cuz I've been working SO hard & some are able to just let the surgery do the work. * I second guess if I picked the right surgery when I am stalled (which is a lot!) * I also weigh myself several times a day. * I struggle to see the new me in the mirror. All I see is the BIG me. Even buying smaller clothes cannot convince me to SEE. * I'm terrified that I will never get the rest of this weight off.

338 before Pre-op diet 1-18-12 288 on surgery date 5-18-12 (-50 pounds!) 239 8-7-12 Goodbye 99 pounds!!! Can't wait to break 100 pounds lost & then get to onederland. :-)

I didn't use chili oil. I couldn't find it either. Just made the meat like regular taco meat.

I made turkey with taco seasoning. A layer of meat, a layer of Queso, a layer of black Beans, a 2nd layer of taco meat, sliced avacado & top with shredded taco cheese. After its done, I added salsa & FF sour cream. :-)

I made these tonight & thought I would share. Delicious! And good for you smushy food eaters. :-) http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/tuna_patties/
