I agree!!! I have lost 70 pounds so far. Everyone says I look great and can tell that I've lost weight, but I do not personally feel it. I can tell some by the way my clothes fit and when I catch my self in the mirror I am doing a double take. I still feel fat though. I'm sure it will take a while to get used to the new me.

I am 4 months out also, and down 70 pounds.... the hair loss is real. I hate washing my hair. I have thought about cutting it short, but haven't done it yet. I go back and forth about it. I totally understand how you are feeling...

Any St. Louis/Metro Area Sleevers out there?
jamilw replied to Nikki Monroe's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi Greg! I have BCBS of IL and the approval process was pretty fast. It was less than 2 weeks. I was impressed. Good luck on your journey! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App -

Yeah he really is amazing! I'm doing good so far, I'm down 57 pounds. Pretty exciting. I was thinking about going in January too. It'd be nice to hear other people's experiences. I have a hard time getting the daily amount of Protein, but I'm trying. And I had to switch to the Vitamin Patches because I got tired of the chewable and got sick with the pills. How is it going for you? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App -

My surgery is scheduled for October 5th. I only have a 3 day pre op liquid diet. Kinda makes me nervous. It seems like every one else I've read has 1 to 2 weeks of it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using the BariatricPal App -
