Does anybody know when the hairloss will stop? I am so tired of washing my hair and it falling out. It is not much, but it is a pain. :crying:

Thankfully I have thick hair but mine is still falling out too. Badly! I run my fingers through it & I have a handful...not exaggerating either. :crying:

I have no idea how long it's suppose to last but I did hear that it grows back. So far I'm not missing it but it is annoying.

Girl you better come one. Flowergurl is fixing to pass me up! I am down almost 30 lbs. I am almost to my first goal of being under 200 lbs. :rolleyes2:

Going to work hard this week to get closer to my goal. Went and bought a new shirt and HELLO it is a 16-18 sure beats a 22 wide. Hopefully next I can buy clothes in the normal sizes instead of having to go find the plus sizes. :girl_hug:

There is going to be a support meeting at the Little Rock DRESS BARN on Tuesday the 14th. I think this is a neat way to have a meeting. It will be informational as far as,,,,,going from large to smaller clothes, and the assistance we might need in doing this.

I am working so hard towards getting my band,,,,,and getting my new insurance,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and starting my NEW LIFE.

Hugs to you all!

Mary

Call Christy in Dr. Baker's office. She can usually tell you what each insurance will cover. I know she did with my insuance and my sisters.

my hair loss got real bad around the 4th or 5th month. then it just stopped. i have really long hair and had to get about 4 inches cut off to "lighten" it up. (i wanted to whack it off..hairdresser did not :wink2:). now i have all kinds of sprigglies all over my hair....lol..

melody mary...how are you doing? i had a hysterectomy 9/22 and developed a severe complication, so i've been doped up on pain medicine since. i'm not anymore. finally starting to feel a little normal now, and i'm officially under 200 lbs. and i'm unfilled. i've lost 5 lbs in the last week!!!! the gynecologist said that my ovaries were the problem and i should see significant improvement without them. i believe him. i'm not craving food like i was, i'm really not even hungry.

boy..anyone that lives near the air base today is getting an ear full?! i guess they are getting ready for the air show. i've been listening to the air planes practicing all day.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
