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' date=' I'm sagging all over and I've never felt better!

Thanks so much. I am very nervous about seeing him. I DO NOT want to hear that I need surgery but am too big. I am tired of that! If he says to wait a month im ok with that cuz I can have another epidural if I need it before then. Thanks for your kindness and prayers!

I only work about 12 hours a week....it's ridiculous to go to these trainings...I work at an after school daycare program, and they're training us on stuff like games for kids and behavior management...it's not like I taught for 20 years and have a masters degree!

      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?

      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.
