We are nearing our 1 year anniversary, how are we all doing?!Great job Kim!Congrats!!!!!My hair started to fall out at 3 .5 months and kept on till about 7 months. It got thin and I've always had thick hair. I cut it short..it's thickening back up nicely and looks cute....people constantly tell me how good it looks..that's of they recognize me 136 lbs lighter!please keep us posted.....I will do the same eventually...good luck with that!Anyone considering plastic surgery in the future.Zosa..muscle weighs more than fat...just keep that in mind... Eboni! You look fantastic! Congrats everyone:) it's hard to believe how fast this year has gone by. We are more than 3/4 of the way to a year already and it hasn't been an easy road but we did it! Life changing. I feel amazing and am completely satisfied with my weight loss to date. It's slow weight loss now but that's ok..no hurry!I was terrified of surgery The anticipation was far worse than the actual surgery. I had quite a bit of other work done. Please try to not be anxious. If I had known how relatively easy this would be, how great and healthy I would feel..I would have done this earlier. You will do great!I was terrified of surgery The anticipation was far worse than the actual surgery. I had quite a bit of other work done. Please try to not be anxious.

You will do great!I know we are all different but I had horrible reflux from 2 months till about 4 months and now gone...no ppi no heartburnI know we are all different but I had horrible reflux from 2 months till about 4 months and now gone...no ppi no heartburnYou are doing great as well!You are doing great as well!Start at the gym Wednesday....renewed efforts to drop the last of the lbsThat's wonderful !I've experienced lots of stalls filed with sports of weight loss....I have learned it's ok and ultimately the weight will continue down....I was terrified of surgery. I was angry I couldn't get my eating under control and lose the weight on my own. I finally just put myself in the hands of the surgeon...God. I woke up and had some pressure and was weak. The first week was difficult but it wasn't as horrible as I thought it would be.everyday was better. Now fast forward 8 months later and I am 125 lbs lighter than the highest weight and look and feel wonderful. It was so worth it...only regret I have is waiting so long! The anticipation was far scarier than the actual process...I am the mother of two boys...good luck u will be greatWeight loss is very, very slow now and I am joining the gym to stimulate loss. I am down 124 lbs though so not complaining!what I could eat at 8 weeks out is very, very different than what I eat now at 9 months out. You will see the weight loss and then you will find you can eat more so now I am being aware of this. Weight loss has slowed down dramatically ...take advantage of these early days out....you will eat and drink more and you will adjust as well.promise to post pics!I just made it onederland...today!A major goal met....wanted to be under 200 by September and I did it...today...the last day of August! I've been hovering around 202/203 for weeks!!!!!! Then finally started inching down again. I am so pleased..thank God for this surgeryI've been reading all the new posts on this thread and I just want to say congrats to everyone who are post op and to all the pre op folks.....good luck and my only regret was not having this surgery years ago....the anticipation was far worse than the surgery itself.Congrats to everyone on their success:)
