I believe the slower you lose it the less skin you develope. I now am developing extra skin. I went to se a plastic surgeon and he said I could do something now as simple as a tummy tuck. I to go through the same thing with my mom she losed her weight on weight watcher but she is small now and I say wow I will be there soon.

You weight lose sounds great, I on the other hand have lost 50.4 pound since 4/11/12. The docs are happy but he tels me not to worry about the weight lost because the goal that I want should be reached in a year. He tells everyone the weight gain did not happen over night. So look at your inches and the weight on thescale make sure that you are eating health beause it helps with the changes. This way you would not put the pounds back on. Good luck on your journey

For me it was the same, You tell yourself OMG what HaveI done and when it is over you would not take back the choice you made.

Well I have not cut my hair yet, But my hair lost is down to the normal level now. I have been using Biotin and fall fight by garneia shampoo and Shea Moisture "Organic Yucca & Aloe Thickening Growth Milk it is for thin and fine hair. Give it a try. Good luck

For me it has change it has gotten better. I feel the changed was with me. It took me a long time to find my soul mate. So I think that is very important to know. How strong is your marriage? these are the question you need to ask yourself. Sit down and discuss on what your mate feels about WLS. Explain your feelings. Tell your mate why this is go for you and the marriage. I was with a man that use to tell me he loved me just the way I was but when I met my husband I told him that I never want to hear those word again. Every body has a problem with something. So as for me I am happy to have done this for myself. I am having more loving moments with hubby. He can't keep his hands off of me. I walk more and able to do more around the house. I am finishing off school and going back to work.

It happen to me too. but it was after 3 month I was eating a sandwich I took two bites and then it just all came up. I told the doctor the next day during my regular visit he could not give me an answer. It has not happen again. Good luck hope i can find the reason

Well after talking to the doctor and buying some products I can say I am seeing normal hair loss. This is compare to the rate of hair loss from before I had the surgery. I take a Biotin when I remember it and I use a product call Shea Moisture: Organic Yucca & Aloe Thinking Growth Milk with Biotin & Bamboo Extract it is a hair dressing cream and I wash my hair with Garnier Fall Fight which also contains Biotin. I hope my experiences brings hope to others.

I was told to wait for 40 days. I have read that others have done it sooner but the doctor want to make sure that I didn't do any movement that could cause any problems. So we wait for full sex and I just did my part to keep him happy. I know TMI. I just want you to know that it was worth it because I went back in with a very bad infection and then I got my period. So by the time we did it I was 30 lbs less. Since then he can not keep his hand off me.

Thanks for reposting this article. I am going thru this right now and was told to take biotin and buy a expense shampoo and to increase my protien will they check blood results.

As a strive to my goals and fill myself with joy, I now have to fight to maintain my hair. Spoke to doctr and he is doing blood test to rule out vitamin problens or not enough protien intake. So until I get some answers I am taking Biotin 5000mg, I bought a hair dressing cream called Shea Moisture and Garne Fall flight which they all contain Biotin. I don't know how long I can take the amount of hair. My next step will be to buy some wigs. I will see how this goes.

My first meal was ground turkey with burilla pasta I measure it in a 1/2 cup the turkey had protien and so did the pasta which was a good in take. good luck Remember protien first at all times.

In my opinion a relationship ship built on anything other than love,understanding and the most important thing communication are doom to fail. If you ca call your mate a friend you will be okay. I hae children and the weight lost has hange my marriage in a way that has made my hubby and I happier. Bause we have kids we can't get the amount of alone time that we wish but he trys t do little get aways and we still try out new resturants. Eventhough this is TMI the best thing I am enjoying is my husband. I was the ft one in the relationship and sex ws a big issue, but not anymore. I am looking forward to the changes in our marriage I am truly blessed he is a soulmate. So look at the positive things that can happen. You enjoy the energy your going to gain and pray that your hubby can keep up.LOL Good luck

try not to see this stall as if there is something wrong. and don't compare yourself to everyone else either. You will reach your goal as long as you follow your plan. I stall at 2 1/2 months and it was for a week. and then I started losing weight again. During the stall I was losing inches from my waist. I use the Wii system it is fun to work with even at my age the Wii scale tracks your weight lost and tells you the average weight lost should be 3 pound a week. Listen you did not get heavy overnight so you should understand that you are not going to lose it over night. Get your focus back and follow your plan and eat you portions correctly and exercise. My doctor told me that he wants me not worry if I am not losing weight every week because I should reach my goal in a year. Also when walking he wants me to go up hills and walk at least 30 mins. a day five days a week. Good luck hope you have much success in this journey.

Well I am about four months out and have always had a high sexual want and my hubby was not like me. But once we started having sex again he seems to want me all the time. This was my biggest complaint and we would fight because I thought that he did not love me. But I now can do the thing I did as a teenager with out the pain of the weight . I also notice I feel him alot more. This is one of the best things of weight lost, the ability to put your legs around your man or for him to do positions you see on tv is the greats. Fifty shades of grey has nothing on me. I told hubby we need to make our own porn and he laugh and said what ever you want but I don't want to share you. We are going to our second honeymoon for my one year goal. Good luck all glad to hear I am not the only having this experience

Eventhough I had a ruffed week bowel issues and hair loss. I am so happy that I am still losing weight slowly and my Ha1c level has gone down to 7.6% it is the best news I heard today.
