Let's see your hair makeovers!



Recommended Posts

So if you are 1 month post op (like me) or 1 year post op let's see your hair makeovers! I have been hiding behind my long hair for 3 years now. I used it as my security blanket. Well 30lbs down (with a ways to go) I felt the need to finally chop it off. It really meant a lot to me because I'm gaining my confidence back and I haven't felt confident in a very long time!post-257611-14612427648447_thumb.jpg

that's a pretty new look for you! I haven't changed my hair at all really, except that I am more likely to wear it down since I feel cold more often than not now.

Thank you! @@Christinamo7 I'm more shocked at my face. I swear I think I dropped like 3 lbs in my face. You can see my jawline again! I'm cold all the time too btw.

my face has had the most changes so far - I was surprised to see my mother in the mirror one day. :-) I think I look like a pretty good mixture of my parents, but as the weight comes off there seems to be more mom in there. not a bad thing, just not what I expected.

It's weird isn't it? You are so used to seeing yourself a certain way and when the changes start happening it's almost like it's happening to someone else.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
