  3. Hair falling out but managed to lose some weight! Getting off hormone therapy so I think that will change things for the better weight wise.

  4. My hair is falling out and I stopped losing weight. Not happy.

      I'm eight months out and I'm still losing but my hair is still coming out.

      Some on this site recommended Juvenon for hair loss problem.

      I don't know anything really about it but my surgeons office said it was okay to use.

      I also checked with the pharmacy I go too to make sure I wouldn't have a problem with it if I started it and was told it was okay to use.

      Here's to our hair not falling out any more.

      have you guys tried biotin. it worked extremely well for me. but it isn't just surgery that will make your hair fall out. go back 5-6 mos. did you experience something stressful? i love suave shampoo the morrocan one. when my hair was falling out it at least fell out shiny and healthy looking. :)

      Good job! Now that we know we can do it. Those numbers will keep rising.

      Wow.. On your preop..congrats

  14. See the Nutritionist tomorrow to see how much more weight I lost!

  15. Found out I have a big ol' hematoma on my stomach muscle. That's why I'm in so much pain.

  16. Surgery was canceled until tomorrow. I'm very upset about this.

      I feel ur pain. Mine was supposed to be the 16th of Jan. (2014). Surgeon's office told me only 1/2 the surgery would be covered by insurance THE DAY BEFORE surgery. So, I had to cancel and look into appeal. I've lost about 15 pds. on this horrendous pre-op diet, meanwhile. Silver lining in everything?

      My surgery was supposed to be on Wednesday but I'm still waiting for authorization, so it had to be cancelled. Looks like I'll be toughing it out on the preop diet for a while longer....:(

  17. Can't sleep. My mind won't shut off!

  18. I'm getting my sleeve on January 20th and have been hearing some horror stories of dry heaves and vomitting. Please tell me this doesn't happen to everyone, does it?
  19. Antonette

    I am so hungry!

    Who's? Mine? January 20th is my surgery date.
  20. This is my first day on my 10 day pre-surgery liquid diet. I am so hungry! I hope I can do this! Anyone else going thru the same thing as I am?
  21. Surgery is January 20th! That's if I make this pre-op liquid diet! HA!!

      Pre-op liquid diets SUCK ( I had 2 weeks pre-op AND 2 week post-op...but you can and will do it and be successful...always remember why you chose to do this and it will get you through...good luck! :)

      Jan 20 will be here before u know it.

  22. Antonette

    That was quick.....

    What happened after you "gulped"?
  23. Pre admission testing was done today. Tomorrow I start my liquid diet. Surgery is January 20th. My questions are: 1. Did you have second thoughts on getting the surgery done? 2. I am stressed out and having anxiety over this surgery, is this common? We're going on vacation on February 17th, I'll be on soft foods by then. I hope I make the right choices and don't get myself sick. I also think that being so stressed out has caused me to get a cold. I hope I don't get a fever, or they won't do surgery. Ugh! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
  24. How long before my pre-op testing should I quit e-cigarettes? Just wondering
