I'll let you know how my appointment goes:)

Thanks Nepagirl. I guess I'm extra worried because being a woman of a certain age (50) and going through menopause, my hair has already thinned on top and I'm worried that it will be completely gone:( But as my beautiful niece said, in the bigger picture, it's a little thing:) Yes, I think I'll have to do either 3 months or 6 months of nutrition counseling (I think it's 6 months), so it does look like we'll be sleeved around the same time...SLEEVE SISTAHS:)

Thanks so much Laura and Cupcake, I appreciate your kind words:)

I've used regular sliced beef and turkey breast. I bought some really lean ground turkey yesterday (the beef was too expensive - waiting for a sale). I'm going to make some ground turkey Jerky tomorrow, fingers crossed:)

If you make your own, you can control what's in it

Here's a recipe for ground beef jerky. I'm going to try it soon. http://wellnessmama.com/2201/ground-beef-jerky/

Congrats! My first appointment is 10/17. I'm excited and nervous at the same time!
