First of all, I want to say that you look amazing!!! Such a difference already!! ... I just got home from work and I'm sitting on my butt drinking a Protein Shake. No exercise here today. Work blew my mind to the point of exhaustion. I'm waiting for my little turkey to wake up from his nap. Then we'll play. That's about it!! :) ... What're yooou up to?!

Yikes! I am 10 weeks post-op and my hair just started coming out. :-( I was hoping I would be one of the lucky ones and not have the Hair loss. I started taking all my Vitamins plus Biotin 2 weeks before surgery in the hopes of keeping it all. Guess there is no way around this. :-(

I'm also 10 weeks out, I've lost about 1/3 of mine. I had 4 inches cut off so the curls might bounce up a bit and look fuller.

Good news I can always order a fabulous wig from one of those drag queen fashion websites, LOL!

I got my medical id Bracelet in the mail today. There is a seller on eBay selling them for 29.99. They are sterling silver and the engraving on the back is free. Just wanted to let you guys know you don't have to spend much on these. I like this one cause it does not have that red cross or whatever that symbol it is that comes on most medical ID bracelets.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
