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.

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!

      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.
