  1. I did quite a bit of research on this and found that it really doesn't matter what you do, you most likely will have some hair loss. Mine didn't start until about 5 months but most of my other April buddies started a lot earlier. I can already see that it is slowing down considerably and I really didn't loose much. Taking biotin can help but from my research, not a whole lot. It is part of the process and WILL end. Here is a link with some info! Hang in there!!http://www.healthcentral.com/obesity/c/276918/150034/bypass-bariatric/
  2. I had previously had gallbladder removal, and hysterectomy and there was no problem doing my RnY laprascopically. The only issue I had with recovery was some bad pain on the left side. This was from the incision where they went through muscle and did most of the hard work through. It hurt pretty good for about 10 day or so and then all of a sudden, one day it stopped and I felt like a new woman! Would do it again tomorrow! Good luck.
  3. I am on vicodin for my back. Ive been swallowing pills since I was in the hospital post op. No problems here.
  4. Hvent had it but it is by the Peanut Butter in wal mart.
  5. Oh my gosh Krystal7k! !! You are so gorgeous! Great job!

  7. He is adorable! I want one! Congrats!
  8. Yikes! Hope u feel better now that its gone! It's a much easier surgery than rny so you should be on your feet in no time!
  9. I made a big pot of chili. The family had corn bread but I stayed away. If I started that id be eating it all day!
  10. Hope they can find some answers soon!
  11. Me too. Fingers and toes crossed. Im have a laminectomy at 2 levels and fusion at 2 levels.
  12. Saw the spine surgeon today. He said my weight was in a good spot for the surgery. He scheduled it for 10 days from now! So on 11-11, please think of me and pray all goes well. Glad it will be soon; he said ive waited in pain for too long already. Getting my back fixed was the reason I had wls to begin with so it was well worth it for me!
  13. Me too. I think about that all the time. You guys have helped me through so much!
