    Not Happy

    So I had my surgery 6/11/12 and this ain't working! I no longer dump on anything! I can eat more than I'm supposed to. And I've only lost 60 lbs. Started at 338 day of surgery 321 but was 336 after surgery I'm at 278 now. Its so freaking hard because I no longer have support from my husband who demands junk food fried food pop and fast food. I talked to my Dr and nut and they said don't eat it....if it was that easy I wouldn't have needed the surgery to begin with. I walk about a mile a day but that's the extent of exercise. I have 3 levels in my house and 4 kids so I'm constantly up and down stairs. Oh and the kicker I now suffer from insomnia so I only sleep 2-3 hours a night. Sorry for the rant I'm just so frustrated #stillfat

    Help

    They cut through skin and muscle rearranged your guts. You can't eat and probably barely drink and if he expects for you to do more than go to the bathroom this soon he's absolutely crazy....

    Smoking?

    I never quit. I tried but couldn't, when asked by my surgeon I told him I was on nicotine patch. I'm 7weeks out and I'm still smoking. I promised myself I'd quit for my 35th birthday 11/03/12

    Alcohol

    I never quit smoking. Bad I know. I'm just being honest. I plan on quitting, I guess I'm just not ready. I know all of the health risks. It helps me get thru not being able to eat. And it helps my stress levels. I don't drink or do drugs. Prior to surgery I only had 2 vices eating and smoking. I'm down to one vice now. I promised myself I'd quit on my 35th birthday (November 3rd)
  12. There are 3 stages how hair growth telogen anogen and catagen there is a hormone released by the body due to trauma or stress that puts hair in the resting stage. Nioxin is said to neutralize that hormone. Do I know it works? No but I'm praying it does.
  13. I take gnc hair and nails. I only wash my hair 2x a week with nioxin. I'm a hair stylist and I go to my beauty school and get scalp treatments (scalp massages) every two weeks. Its only $5

  20. I feel for them but distance myself as well. I'm glad I've been thru so much as child with their alcohol problems as an adult I don't drink and I've never done drugs. I'm a Christian as well you and you bf are in my prayers. Kudos to him for staying clean for so long

    Who Have You Told?

    I've told everyone even posted it on facebook.
  23. I know you didn't mean it to offend anyone I was joking. As far as relapsing its a fact of life my mom is a life long alcoholic so are most of her siblings. She's fallen off the wagon more times than most. Its a daily struggle no shame in it. Dust yourself off and get back on.
  24. Quite the lady ha she reminds me of Nana rose from roseanne. She was the cool Grandma that told us dirty jokes. We always said she was white trash with money
  25. No mami I was talking to law. Sorry I didn't quote. Guess I was being lazy
