The hair started falling out mid April, and still coming out. I have very fine thin hair but I am coping. I am perfectly happy if I never lose another pound. It has been wonderful for me and my husband.

My husband has lost 90, about like you Bob! Congratulations, I know you are a new person, just like he is! Best thing we all could have ever done for our health.

We have a similar path, I was sleeved Nov 20, started at 211 down to 146, my hair loss started at 3 months exactly and has pretty much stopped thankfully! I cut my hair last week and now I can barely tell it's thin, the layering really helped! Here's a pic of my hubby and I last night at a wedding then I'll throw in a preop photo I just found on hubby's phone bc it shocked the crap out of me, I don't have many preop pics of me bc I got very camera shy towards the "end"

So proud to be a Nov 2013 Sleever!

You look great! And I love your dress! Dont think I could pull a dress off or maybe its all in my head. I was looking at pics recently of myself a year or so bfr surgery and cant believe how far i let myself go. I did not cut my hair could not do it. But Im so happy the hair loss finally stopped! Good luck on the rest of your journey:)

I had a wonderful NSV over the weekend, for the first time in my life i wore a pair of WHITE pants. I was so nervous and almost chickened out...But i got so many positive reactions. more than 5 people actually said WOW you look GREAT! I dont think im quite brave enough for a swimsuit yet but Im happy with this! loving my sleeve!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
