  1. I was over 300, got down to 263 for surgery, have been stable around 140 do over a year. I think in the long-term sleevers actually will have better numbers than Roux-N-Y people. We don't have as many hormonal drivers for hunger because they actually remove a large portion of the stomach. Plus we don't tend to have as many issues with malabsorption so I think all in all it's a better procedure :-))

    Coloring hair

    I recommend L-Lysine supplement and Ovation cell therapy for hair support. I had REALLY thin hair because I was post-cancer, multiple surgeries, major stress, early onset menopause because of radiation and that was all before I got sleeved. I love the tinted dry shampoo by Batiste to boost volume and cover bald spots and I try to wash my hair only 2-3 times a week so there's less breakage. My hair has grown out a lot but as I was losing weight I just kept it super short.

  4. Dave just went to check on Truman in the tub and what does he say? "Daddy, God loves you. Go in peace." No joke. What a kid!!!

    Oh Boy. This Could Get Ugly.

    I am praying that whatever is causing your fever and pain is healed quickly. I don't know what is causing it, but whatever it is I am praying for immediate relief. Rest and calm yourself, because stressing over whatever the symptoms are can only make it worse. Blessings to you!!!
