Hi I am really excited for you to start this journey. I had super thick hair but not anymore!! I have lost quite a bit of hair but no one else seems to have noticed. BUT it is only temporary and will grow back around the 6 month mark. I will take a bit of hair loss over being unhealthy. I wear my hair up and try not to brush it as much. Honestly, you will be getting used to your new tummy and focused on healing....hair loss will be the last thing on your mind. P.s I only made a profile to reply to you because aftet reading your post, I couldn't believe the similarities. I am here if you ever need to talk or even just vent. Xx

Hi I am also 30 and have PCOS and had a mini gastric bypass on 5th March. My starting weight was 118kg/5ft3 and so far I have lost 57lbs without doing any exercise (I'm starting with a personal trainer on Thursday) I found it so hard to lose weight before the surgery. I am not going to lie to you, it is hard and the surgery is only the start but if you stick to the eating guide and can mentally cope with not eating large meals then you will be fine. I am still getting used to my small stomach and some of the 'issues' that can come with it. (E.g gas) but everybody's journey is different. I don't regret the surgery all at. I see changes in my body every week and my confidence is starting to come back. I wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose to do. Xxx
