Sleep studies are not that big of deal, yes u will not be in your own bed but the bedroom should be set up like a hotel room to make u feel more at home, yes u will have alot of wires hooked to u but u will survive i promise plus im guessing u dont have a choice but to have study Sent from my iPhone using VST

Do u take b1 and b12 injections?? Sent from my iPhone using VST

Its not as easy as just getting surgery and then losing the weight. It's still alot if work like making SURE you drink PLENTY of Water and get your Protein for sure! Sent from my iPhone using VST

Its really not that big of a deal, with or without braids. Ive done sleep studies for over 7 yrs and had every hair type imagineable. Its not glue we use to keep electrodes on, its just paste and best way to get it out of your hair is use the warmest Water you can handle then shampoo, dont shampoo first.
