Hair loss is a sign of protein deficiency. http://www.arltma.com/HairLossDoc.htm

If I am doing my math correctly - we were banded on the same day (the 15th) - I got lucky - am still feeling a lot of restriction and not very much hunger at all. I go back and forth between pureed/mushy and protein shakes. I have lost about 18 lbs since surgery. Everyone's experience is different.

Why would someone risk their band because they were impatient? There are more serious issues underlying that problem than slow weight loss.

Tree hugging liberal - save the planet, compassionate government, gay marriage - the whole deal.

What a load of crap - a bunch of republican talking points swiped right from Fox News. He's not doing any worse than any other president and he inherited this abortion of an economy from GWB. Obama is cleaning up the repub's mess because you all had your turn and couldn't (or wouldn't) do anything about it. Just let Wall Street run unregulated and fill the world's economy with toxic investments. But I will say this - I got a great house at a rock bottom price thanks to the home market tumbling in AZ. Foreclosures are only bad to the people losing their homes - it was great for me.:smile: If engaged, compassionate government is socialism then I will take 2 helpings please and I will vote for BO in the next election. So - no - not sorry at all (to the OP)

I think it's real and we have an obligation to do something about it. Even if the earth is in a natural warming cycle - we are speeding up the process. Why not err on the side of caution and do what we can by lowering or carbon footprint. After all - weaning ourselves off fossil fuels can't be a bad thing. I don't see any political agenda to wanting to be sure we are proper stewards of this planet - but then again - I don't believe in whaling or clubbing baby seals either. Guess I am just a bed-wetting, bleeding heart liberal.:smile:

I am counting on a better sex life. ok...a sex life...lol...:smile:
