You can drink you colon cleanse drink (the one you drink 24-48 hours before surgery) I dropped like 8 lbs with in 24 hours. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 164.0 lbs. --- Only 14 lbs to my goal ---

They lose slower because their body has already adapted to a weight loss surgery. We only have an open window of 12 to 18 months to lose weight before our bodies naturally adapt to the surgery. During this period we only take in a portion of our calories that are ate and also after surgery our metabolism is reset and a few genes are altered. It takes about 12 to 18 months for our bodies to figure out how to adapt back to the old us. It will never adapt all the way... Like taking in nutrients properly .. taking Vitamins will be a forever task. With revisions.. the body has already been fooled so its really only working on losing weight on the small portions you take in. Some folks get lucky and can fool their body twice. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 164.0 lbs. --- Only 14 lbs to my goal ---

I'm so in love with long hair too. I had been growing my hair out for 5 years and he back was almost waist length. I had started using clip ins for a little more fullness but because the hair roots get weak after surgery the clips were causing it to.shed more.. and the pony tails and messy buns were pulling too. Once the shedding slows down ill buy someone clips for a varity of looks. But I will say... Id rather be skinny than have super long hair. My cute bob looks good with my new body. ~Leticia **HW: 259**PreOp: 216**SURG: 3/21/13 **Discharged @: 221** 3 mons post op. CW: 165.0 lbs. --- Only 15 lbs to my goal ---
