  1. That's exactly what I thought when I purchased it. It's called Invati. There is a shampoo, conditioner and scalp revitalizer. I purchased all 3.
  2. "SkinnyMinnie2Be" it sounds like you are well in your way. I'm certainly you'll get there. Congratulations & best wishes!
  3. I bought some expensive Adeva products and mine has started to slow. I'm not sure if its the products or just my natural body reaction. Either way I'm glad it seems better.
  4. I am in a similar situation. I was sleeved on October 31st. I've lost 94 pounds since surgery and 104 from my highest weight. I've slowed down a lot and going back and forth 2-3 pounds each time I weigh. I'm not complaining at all. If I don't lose a single pound more it has still been worth it. I know the next 70 pounds to my "goal" will be a struggle, but I try not to stress myself over it. It's been an amazing journey so far and I look forward to what lies ahead. This is the first time I've been on this site in a while and it is so great to see I am in line with others.
  5. I am 6 months out now. My hair has thinned, but it hasn't fallen out in clumps or anything. I'd say that I am the only one who even notices it.

    Stalls in weight loss

    I had my surgery on October 31. I have lost 75 pounds. The past two weeks I have not lost a single pound. I feel your pain. I have vowed that I will be a model patient and make sure I get all my Protein and Water which I constantly struggle with. I know it is key, but some days I just can't choke down a shake no matter what I try. Here is to hoping our stalls break soon!!!

    Updated Pictures

    50 pounds lost. I forgot to say! Thanks so much for your kind words!
  9. I LOVED and still love looking at people's pictures before and after surgery. This is the first side by side I've done and though I still have a ways to go it shows progress and I feel so excited to be able to see the difference in the photo. The left is one month after surgery and the one on the right is today, two months after surgery.

    Ouch! Stinging Pain!

    I'm 4 weeks out today and have been feeling the exact same thing for 2 days now. I'll feel it a few times a day. It's such an odd feeling.

    Stupid Question

    I was able to remove the bandaids the day after surgery. I was able to remove the steri-strips one week after surgery. Both were per my doctors instructions.
  12. Today was day 1 of my two week pre-op diet. Surgery is scheduled for the 31st. I did ok. I didn't "cheat". I had 2 shakes, a few bites of Soup, a Jello, a pudding and a yogurt. I've been trying to make an effort at taking small sips to practice and get in the habit. It's the end of the day and I feel better than I thought. The head ache is there but not anything I can't handle. I'm tired but not as hungry as I'd imagined. I'm calling it an extra early night and considering day 1 a success. Best of luck to each of you. I'll have you in my thoughts and prayers!
  13. Keep it up girl! I hear the first 4 days are the hardest.
  14. I too will be starting my pre-op diet in just a few short days (Wednesday). I am terrified about it. I feel like it is this huge test and if I fail I won't really be ready for the commitment of surgery. So I'm trying my best to be prepared. I'll also be traveling while on my diet and I'm hoping that limits my exposure rather than making it more difficult. At least I will be away from all this good south Louisiana good! I'll be thinking of each of you! Best of luck!!!
