    Getting your hair professionally colored?

    I also colored my hair not too long after surgery and was concerned when I started noticing some hair loss. It’s reassuring to hear that it’s normal and not related to the coloring process. I'll definitely check out that YouTube video you linked for more info. I've been using Virgo de Novo styling products, and they’ve really helped keep my hair healthy and vibrant despite the coloring. I think their products are fantastic for anyone looking to maintain their hair post-surgery.

    Is there a clothing exchange here?

    If you're looking for a clothing exchange, this forum is a great place to start. I've had some experience with exchanging clothes here, and it's been a positive experience Inoticed that many members here are pretty open and helpful when it comes to trading items. For example, I recently needed a wedding suit and ended up getting a fantastic deal on a gently used one from wedding suits from Gentleman's Guru through a member here. The suit was in perfect condition, and it made my wedding day special. Gentleman's Guru has high-quality suits that look great and feel comfortable, so if you have anything from there, you might find some interested members. Exchanging clothes not only helps you get what you need without spending too much but also promotes sustainability. It feels good to give your clothes a second life and find new pieces you might love

    Medication and the Gastric Sleeve

    Medications after weight loss surgery can feel like a rollercoaster, right? You just conquered a huge hurdle, and now there's this whole new world of prescriptions to navigate. While I'm not a medical professional, I do believe in tackling health holistically. So, along with meds, focusing on mental well-being during this journey is super important. It's like giving your body and mind a high five for their teamwork! For me, staying positive and focused helped a ton. There were tough days, for sure, but resources like mentalhealthhotline.org can be a lifesaver. They offer confidential support, which can be a huge weight off your shoulders.

    Over night stay at hospital. Yay or nay

    I went home the same day after my WLS and, honestly, it was a good call for me. Having a high pain tolerance helped, but WAS pain is a unique experience.Make sure to have a supportive post-op plan and, most importantly, listen to your body. Wishing you a smooth surgery and a speedy recovery!
