You look so cute! Way skinnier than me!!! How tall are you? Seeing the pics of your Hair loss has inspired me to get a pic of mine also...LOL

Thank u! Don't feel so skinny yet. I'm at 166 and holding. Yes I decided to take pic while I did still have hair!! I gotta admit the Moroccan oil helped the dry frizzy deadness so much.

I have this problem too! I joke that after a shower and a brushing I can make a voodoo doll, lol. In all reality, it scares the crap outta me. ... They say it stops. I hope it does soon! In the mean time, I'll be shedding with you. :)

I went in and I sat and the back. It was a small class and I told the instructor I had never did this before. She was great. Was a great workout and also very relaxing! I'm glad I pushed my self conscious fears away and went!

It happens to all of us. So far about 2/3 of mine has fallen out. The good news is I noticed its getting thicker at my scalp.

I've lost 74# since my surgery date 4/2/13. I'm near bald, I'm sagging all over and I've never felt better!

This was after a good backyard brush out... minus all the hair wrapped around the bar of soap and in the washcloth! This can't go on much longer :(

Good for you! It may sound weird but I cant wait to be able to exercise some. I see the surgeon on Wednesday to find out whats up. I just really want this process over with! I used to do jazzercise and I LOVED it. That is something id like to do again.

      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.
