  1. Nioxin shampoo..conditioner and scalp treatment are amazing products for thinning or hair loss...I use them in my salon...any change in diet.. meds..surgery or tramua can't reflect on ur hair and nails they are both made of keratin..deep conditions and keratin treatments are both great ideas to combat hair loss or breakage..Paul Mitchell has a wondeful line of Wild Ginger Keratin products
  2. I told my daughters...then one of them told their step-mom and b4 i knew it everyone in town knew..so I made a small post on Facebook conferming it so it came from me and not the step-mom's big mouth!!!

  8. Im not a mean person untill poked or pushed..ur right I would of never made the taco comment b4 I woulda been right there with her cramming 4 of them down myself..but her comment was way out of line and I was not gonna take it and I did value our freindship...many times I have been there for her and vise versa...yes I'm doing 4 miles of speed walking a day cut into 2 different sessions...I've dropped 26lbs in 13 days!!..could not be happier with myself..and most of the women in my family have hot tempers..I'm the mild one ha
  9. I was on my period when I had surgery 9/6..and i had to take my underwear off but they let me use a tampon thank the Lord lol
  10. Today I had lunch with a friend of mine...I met with her to give her a job..before we could even get to that part lunch fell apart...she suggested Taco Bell I said ok...knowing I would just have the small bowl of refried beans ( surgery was Sept 6th)....she asked how my progress was going and I said really well..and she said " it can't be that hard u barely eat anything and can sit around and lose weight"...she is a bigger gal who's mom had gastric bypass 8 years ago so I though her of all people would be supportive...I have a pretty sharp Italian temper and before i thought I said back to her..."I bust my ass 4 miles a day on my treadmill..yes ur right it does take much to fill me up but I still hafta watch what I eat and make sure it's the right foods...you were prob full 2 freaking tacos ago but choose to ignore it"...I got up and left...ok soo I do feel a little guilty abt snapping off on her like that...but I'm guessing this was a friendship that was not gonna last once i started losin weight and she did nothing for herself..such a shame we had tons of fun together
  11. My first fill is also Oct 3rd along with my first nutrition class..I've only been eating 4oz at a time and still feel hungry I hope the fill changes that
  12. Not having to wear spandex under a dress to smooth things out...and no more spanks so that my thighs don't chafe..I hope and this is a big goal for me..I will be 40 in 2.5 years and I wanna wear my daughters super cute size 7 prom dress at my big 4-0 bash!!! Lol
  13. For years I have had 2 sticks of secret...one for the pits and one for the under regions lol..my 3 daughters never borrow mine cause they have no idea where which one has been ha
  14. Thank you!!!...my husband has never smoked he has been my amazing rock of support!!..he gave up his den to turn it into an at home gym for me!!..I think having someone who is behind you 100% good or bad times is so important
  15. Whoa!!...we are all here to support each other...and we all know the risk sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't...BUT we are not her to read profanity..and name calling..sorry it didn't work for you...but calling people a "b***h" dropping the "F" bomb is rude and trashy..and it doesn't matter who is heavier then the other..it's one goal we all have and thats to be healthier then we started
  16. I was banded on Sept 6th...best thing I ever did for myself!!!...I'm pain free back to working out and back to work...I've lost 25lbs and back into my favorite pair of Silvers..but I hope not for long lol
  17. I smoked for 22 years!!!...i had to quit 6 weeks b4 surgery and I did really well with the chantix...2 weeks b4 surgery I freaked out started smoking again..the coordinator said I would be tested the day of surgery..but they never...i smoked in the car on the way home WORST pain of my life I'm 7 days post-op and back on chantix and using a electronic ciggarett if I really can't fight the craving..i know it's really hard when they take food and smoking away at the same time and expect u to lose weight but I can do it..I've lost 26lbs since surgery!!
