  3. I did not. I've been very, very lucky, and I exercise quite a lot. Lifting weights has helped me immensely, as well as "good genes" I suppose. You both look absolutely AMAZING! Great job!

  5. :-D I'm on the left, and my daughter on the right. I was tired. She's a perky teenager, so she never gets tired. lol!
  6. I'm 20 months out, and have been at my goal for a few months now. BEFORE AFTER (Actually, I lost about 5 more pounds after the "after" photo was taken.) :-) I'm on the left, daughter on the right.
  7. So I took a ton of Biotin, drank tons of Water, and worked hard to keep up with my Protein. I still lost so much of my hair on top that I couldn't go out in public without a head covering. At first, I was getting really bummed about it (though, even at that time, I did NOT regret the surgery one little bit!), but I did a lot of research, and got a really pretty, very realistic looking wig and after weight loss, and with a head full of hair, I got all my confidence back. I am at 20 months out, and still don't have all of my hair back. It's very fine and thin and the texture is really curly now. I just keep wearing wigs. I love them, and no one has any idea unless I tell them, and then they act like I'm joking with them. Even though I put off having surgery for fear of losing my hair, I finally realized that the trade off was worth it. Seriously, I can always buy hair. Can't buy health or a new body if mine starts breaking down. It was still worth it, and I wouldn't change a thing.
  8. I never knew anyone responded to this. I guess I didn't sign up for notifications.

  10. I bet it was from the tube in my throat. I'm still on liquids right now. It was hard to really care about getting anything down the first several days. Now I try to get that protein in because I know it will help with healing. How many are in the room with you?
  11. I've been here and there. I just got a bad sore throat after I got home and have been really tired and drained. I hope your surgery goes fantastic and you have a quick recovery, drowdie!
  12. I'm the same way! When I make a decision, I'm ready to act on it. I've got my pantry stocked too! :-)
