  1. Sweetsophia, It took 4 months from first seminar to surgery. My insurance did not require a 6 month diet first. I had a very quick and easy time of time. surgery was Aug 21, 13, I have lost 54 lbs and at a stand still now. Have been since Thanksgiving but I am not giving up and the Hair loss. Be glad when that stops and starts growing again. Good luck.


  2. I was sleeved on August 21, 2013, I have lost 55 lbs. I am at a stand still now and getting discouraged but I know this is part of the journey. How is everyone doing with hair loss. I have lost more hair this week then I have since sleeved. Has anyone seen a regrown and when did it start? I am taking all of my vits. Biotin for the hair. Happy New Year everyone.


  3. You are doing this for you. That is one reason why I didn't tell anyone except my husband. After I told one of my daughters she asked why did I have it done. I told her I 61 years old and I don't have time to do it with diet alone plus I needed to get the weight off fast. Day after surgery I was taken off of diabetes meds and 1 blood pressure pill. I feel so much better, 40 lbs off in 8 weeks.


  4. I too have had tough times, 53 year old brother dies from cardiac arrest, 125 days later my 50 year old brothers dies very unexpectedly and then two days after I had my twin sister living with me because had just had cancer surgery. She lived with me off and on for 6 years and the last 6 weeks of her life I took care of her in every way that needed to be done. We had just turn 52 when she passed away. Yes it was very hard but we all have our cross to carry and I drew strength for God and the bible. Seek help. There is help out there. Don't give up. You seem to have hit bottom now there is no place to go but up. Please keep all of us posted. We care.
