Sigh. The hair loss has happened
BrynHow replied to qtdoll's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am 2.5 yrs out and still have significant hair loss. Lots of patchiness! I wouldn’t trade my weight loss journey except for this one factor. My Mom is a Beautician so we have tried many haircuts and hair care. I’m 59 and fortunate (and unfortunate) to have very dark hair but with a very white scalp that soooooo amplifies the patchiness! I had short, full, curly hair before surgery, now I have very thin, slight wave, short hair. 🫥 -

“I also find that my brain wasn’t operated on”!!! I loved this quote! Such truth! My brain is remembering how much I used to love snacking in front of the TV etc! Ugh! I’m needing a brain retrain 2 yrs out! My belly suffers because my brain thinks it’s in charge again! HOLD ON BATGIRL! Operation BrainRetrain activated!!!!!!!

I’m 2 yrs out, it’s July in the Midwest and I STILL use an electric mattress pad every night and always have wool socks on at home! Granted my DH likes the thermostat set at 68-70🥶!!! I used to almost overheat when I was growing up, Dad kept it at like 70-72 in winter, but now when I’m there to watch football I’m all wrapped up in a blanket. They think it’s funny! Lol
