  3. How are all you doing now?!?! It's been awhile. Life different? Share
  4. I was sleeved by Dr Schram in Zeeland. Loved the staff their too! Didn't know he goes out of GR? Best of luck to you!
  5. I'm going to be bald and match my husband! Just kidding... I am losing hair like crazy. Taking biotin, and using rogain too. Hooefully it stops soon. Going to try fructris shampoo too! We must remember it's temporary
  6. I feel like I'm going to be bald next week. Even my hair dresser was concerned. I knew it was going to happen but this is crazy! Saw a commercial for fructris that helps slow hair loss... Worth a try!
  7. Surgery 4-10-12 and today I weighed myself again on the wii fit like I normally do and I got the best news!!!! I'm overweight and not obese, or morbidly obese!!!! I'm moving down the scale! That news to skinny people probably doesn't make any sense, but I am thrilled! I lost three lbs since last time I weighed myself and I went on vacation! I have been blessed! Watching this thread over the past few months has been interesting. First we were nervous, scared excited, to happy life changed people! What a transition! Great job everyone!
  8. I am really worried! I can see my scalp through my hair and never could before!!!! I have curly hair naturally but my hair is everywhere around the house! Worse than my cats! Do we know for sure if it grows back? I'm taking biotin to help.
  9. Went shopping and went to Victorias secret and was treated like I belong there ! I was never "helped" before or told they don't have my size! I also bought a belt! Haven't worn that in 20 years!!!!!! Very happy!
  10. Try a department store to get fitted. I don't shop at VS anymore. They are expensive and don't hold up. Wacoal brand is awesome and pretty!!! Good luck!
  11. Sleeved 4/10 and I am do glad I did it!!!! Down 40 lbs! I too didn't have co morbities. But I feel amazing and loving my new life!!!
