Sorry to hear about your grandmother. You have definitely had a terrible week. Pray your month will get better. At least you are staying movitated and continuing to lose weight . I was sleeved 8/17 as well but have been in a stall for past couple of weeks. Scale wont budge but im feeling better. I have my good days and my bad regarding energy levels. Any way keep us posted on your progress.

Im about to have surgery tomorrow and hair loss was a big concern for me. I read on here that some people take Biotin supplements. So I have been taking Biotin 5,000 mcg cap once daily. I talk to my hairdresser and she said taking 10,000 mcg per day has been really helpful. Also Nioxin hair products are suppose to be really good, a little expensive though.

So glad you posted about your experience it has really shed more insight on what to expect. I go in on June 13th for the sleeve. And I'm terrified. I keep trying to talk myself out of surgery. How did you cope with watching everyone else eat around you i.e. while cooking meals for the family etc.?

Thanks for sharing and congrats on your success!!
