    ❀MARCH 2019 CHALLENGE❀

    March 8,9,10 &11: One annoying habit I would like to break is reading 15267477948473383384 books at the same time. Its just that there are sooo many good ones and life seems so short so I want to read as much as I can while I can Advice I'd give myself a year ago today is enjoy that trip thoroughly. Stop whining about the frigid weather, buy another scarf and socks, keep walking. I'm good at recognizing my own bs and calling myself on it. I really like my shoulders at the moment because everything else is trying to hurt my feelings... Lol plastics here I come πŸ˜‚

    The scale may bounce around indefinitely. Some VETs say they go up and down within 5-10lbs of their lowest weight all the time while in maintenance. The day a scale gives me lucky lotto numbers & famous quotes i will pay a lot more attention to what it has to say and of course everyone is different should feel the emotions they really feel. I think this will spark a B-Side question...

    Scales only tell you only 1 number in your overall health (maybe 4 if they are fancy) They can't tell you your blood pressure, a1c, thyroid function, stress levels, bone density, heart valve function, kidney function, glaucoma risk factor, dental anomalies, parent's health in 5 yrs, love life predictions, hair stylist reviews, child rearing advice, challenges to join, tax audit results, ebay bidding wars wins, Walking Dead/Game of Thrones endings... IDK... Doesn't seem the most important in the overarching story

    Hi! Sorry you hit a mental snag... But try to think of it as that. Your body is doing just fine if its not actively rebelling against you. Silver lining. Not everyone will lose extremely fast , fast ,evenly or at the same pace forever. And im sure youve heard it all before. I was a slow loser. I once stalled for a month+ straight out the gate. I didnt know it until visiting my surgeon's office ( I utterly refused to buy a scale during the losing phase). I can only tell you what I decided to do not what you should do. I gave the royal single finger salute to weighing and focused squarely on things I could control. My diet. I went hardcore making sure I substituted everything I could with better things even if they were already healthy, eliminating sugar completely (honey & maple) cutting out unnecessary cals when/where I could, etc. It gave me something I could quantifiably control. I didn't feel helpless or hopeless and i didnt care about the scake at all ... I was way too busy. All the oz ans lbs add up in the end. Promise. Promise. Promise. I hope you feel better about it all soon. Your surgery is very young. There is still so much time to explore and experience you new post Bari life and body. Wait and see. πŸ’œ

    Hair Loss

    Hi research Telogen Effluvium / causes / treatments. Being a hairdresser you have a unique opportunity to combine your knowledge and practice to help others once you get an understanding of the mechanisms behind this specific type of hairloss.

      I was watching that at work while taking a break and one of the younger girls thought it was a bunch of "older" men doing a parody of "boy bands from the old days"...her words not mine! I had a good time explaining to her the difference between NKOTB, INSYNC, 98 DEGREES, BOYS TO MEN etc! She had no clue who most of the groups are let alone the individual members!
