I am considering braids...my daughter has the box braids and she is catching heck with them...they r heavy on her head and uncomfortable when she sleep....Hmmm..so I might get reg braids because pulling back in a lil thin ponytail is not cutting it...lol

Im African American...sleeved on Jan 31...my hair is coming out really bad. It started about 3months postop and it is still falling fast at 5 months. I am taking my biotin, proteins, and vitamins. I am sooo scared that I will be bald if it doesn't stop or slow down. I have less than half the hair I started with. My sides are almost bald...omg...I'm kinda embarrassed but my weight loss is super...so I don't mind my hair much cuz I look marvelous...lol

I'm 5months postop...sleeveed on Jan 31...sw= 206. Cw=155-157...my goal is 150...those last 5# are so hard for me to lose..but I realized I must go back to the basic...do a week of liquid diet then go from there, maybe that will jump start my weight loss again...ughhh...lol

I went to Dr Hargroder...he is a sweetie ....and. cute...lol

My hairloss is really bad also....my hair was thin before the surgery now I'm afraid I will go bald. I take biotin and a super b complex...ugh...I'm 4months out, I hope it slows down before i will need a wig..omg

I kept mines a secret from my parents and everyone except my daughter...my coworker who is overweight is amazed but jealous on how my weight I am losing and have lost. She calls me every wknd to go eat at the buffet with her,I go knowing I will waste $32.00...but I do get to eat my favorite,,,seafood...so she stares at my plate and monitor how much I intake which is very very little. Then she goes back to work and tell everyone how little I ate. She also buy very food fast food that I used to eat and try to beg me to just eat a little...that's the very reason I am not eating out with her and why I keep my business to myself. She even told me to stop losing weight because i lost too much...my thought is...everyone who pretend to be ur friend is not really ur friend when they feel u have an advantage over them....so...that's why no one need to know,....so I can go through this journey stress free and at my own pace.

I had my thyroid and parathyroid glands removed 23 years ago...it was a real bad battle afterwards...my weight before thyroid surgery was 107. Then 23 yrs later I bloomed up to 209#...that's when I decided to have the weightloss surgery Jan 31...I hope u have a good surgeon who can monitor and regulate ur thyroid hormones after surgery, mines didn't until I found a new Dr about 5yrs ago...good luck!!!

I have lost 51# since Jan 31 surgery...I am 8# away from my goal...I started at 209 and now I am 158....bad bad hairloss, but I'm happy the pounds are coming off at a nice pace.

My hairloss started around 2& 1/2 months after surgery..now its in full bloom falling and shedding...I have lost already over 1/2 my hair I started with...I'm concerned but I Tripping. Because the weight is coming off nicely..lol

Ok everyone...I gotta say this...for some reason, my stomach is asking for sweets...yes sweets....so....I have been eating sugary popcorn every night before I go to sleep...well it caught up with me, within 3days, I gained 2#...omg...yes...why am I. Wanting sweets....I ate a sf popsicle, that didn't curb my appetite for sugar...omg...I'm going to have to pray that the sugar craving leave me..oh and yess, my stomach loves it...it doesnt growl at all, I think it is smiling..lol...pray for me everyone, I am 4 months out and now 12#from my goal...ughhh

Honestly, I walk a little and I know I am not reaching my water intake...do u think that might be a major factor??

How many calories are the January sleevers intaking???? I am still juggling 500 - 600 calories a day..is that why I am losing maybe a pound in a week and a half???
