I don't know about other July Butterflies, but I have been realizing that if I don't exercise most days, weight loss is painfully slow. I finally signed up for a 5K with my kids for this weekend and if all goes well, we will do another 5K next weekend. I have only lost 16, down from 214 in two months. It's not that I don't like exercising, it is just about making time for myself a priority. Everyone is doing so great that I enjoy reading about you, but my progress is slower than some of the other Butterflies flying high, so I just lurk. Congrats to all of you! You inspire me.

Thanks! All of us who are shedding alot hope it suddenly stops.

Thanks. Ordered Nioxin online a little bit ago and will try the supplements. Can't hurt.

I was banded almost two months ago and I have lost an awful lot of hair. I tried the comb over for as long as I could. I broke down and got the wig today as I couldn't bear to see my scalp a couple inches back any more when I looked in the rear view mirror. With the weight loss and the change in hair, people are slow to recognize me. Anybody know how soon the hair starts coming back? I'll be anxious to see those new buds of hair as I have way too much scalp. I don't regret getting the band, but didn't expect this.:thumbup:

Hi Dionna: I am stalled at exactly where you are, and it seems like the weight comes off quickly for awhile and then plateaus. It's as if you have to work very hard to get to the next weight setpoint. I keep hoping there is going to be another loss coming. I know I'm not eating too much so the loss is inevitable, right?:smile2:
