sasicas 194 Posted July 12, 2011 Thanks! With the complications, if you would have asked me during that time I did regret the surgery. It was not fun, of course not nearly as bad as some others have had it but I was not a happy camper then. Now though, seeing the difference I am glad I did it. @Weightbgone- I am 5'4 @GreenEyedMomma-Congrats!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Texas Gal 2 Posted July 12, 2011 There are some people on here talking about thinning hair....do you have that or any of the others that have commented on this string? I am SOOOO petrified of losing my hair.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sasicas 194 Posted July 12, 2011 There are some people on here talking about thinning hair....do you have that or any of the others that have commented on this string? I am SOOOO petrified of losing my hair.< /p> Oh yes, my hair is falling out like crazy! At least I have thick hair so it is not noticable unless you get up close and see the strands of hair that are constantly all over my clothing. Seriously. I cannot even wear white shirts or sweaters anymore but it's way more noticable on those. My hair has changed all together, it used to be very oily, to the point that I HAD to wash my hair daily. I now wash my hair 2 times a week, it's not oily at all. I had to put a strainer thingy in the tub to deal with the hair and it comes out like crazy if I even just run my hands through my hair, forget brushing it or straightening or curling, it comes out worse with those which is why I only style my hair on Sunday's for Church. The rest of the week I usually run a brush through once a day. And I have to put my hair up if I'm cooking because it ends up in the food. But the Hair loss is temporary. I would rather lose some hair and be thin and be fat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sasicas 194 Posted July 13, 2011 Thanks everyone I really am glad I went through the surgery. The complications sucked but it's nothing I can't deal with. I still get pain and have to take Nexium twice a day and Zantac once a day but it's nothing I can't handle. Doctors are still hopeful that things will improve even more over the next few months Now I'm just trying to push the exercise to tone up and hit goal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
