Omg[emoji50][emoji17]When I lost my 100 pounds I decided to have a tummy lift. Worst decision in my life. You lose all sensation with it and I threw 3 blood clots that traveled to my lungs and they almost killed me. Maybe I had a bad doctor but my tummy is now flat but my ass is big. Very stupid. -

Thank you![emoji7]

Thank you!! Thats awsome.[emoji7] ur doing great! I take more pictures now[emoji23]You look great! Congratulations! I had surgery the day before you. Pre surgery pre diet 265, nowb178. It feels good and is fun to see myself in the mirror. But I must admit that some days I veer off the healthy road. It's still so surprising and frustrating that I seem to have no physical issues eating unhealthy crap food but often struggle with the much needed Protein like meat. I'm trying not to beat myself up too much but I'm getting worried about the honeymoon period ending and the regain possibility. Scares me. A lot.
I get you! It is a struggle.
Im proud to say i have not tried junk food simply cuz im scared of getting sick. Yes its easy to start eating a lil more and more as days go by. I did get scared once cuz I ate a lil to much and felt like dying. It was enough to keep me away from over eating or bad stuff. But what I do is play with my mind...lol if i crave pizza I make my own coliflower crust pizza..if i crave burgers i make veggie burger for me, Pasta ? Butternut squash noodles for me.. my big crave is chips! Ill have like 2 pita chips and crave is done... meal portion/prep is a must for me,always Prepared anywhere I go I carry my stuff. Its the only way to stay focused.
Yes im also scared of honeymoon stage ending which is why i try harder.

Yes you are right. Have had issues with hormones and I am aware but it got worse/more noticeable now.I don't think it would be the Biotin causing that. Much more likely to be hormonal.

You are so right! TY![emoji4]yes - I've heard Biotin can stimulate facial Hair growth. Unfortunately, I've also heard it's not as effective for the hair on your head! I don't think anything really helps. If you're going to lose hair, you will, if not, you won't. I lost very little hair. I started noticing extra strands in my comb when I was about 5-6 months out. This went on for maybe 3 or 4 months. If it weren't for the strands in the comb, I never would have noticed. And neither did anyone else. Even if you lose some hair, it's temporary - and for most people, you're the only one who notices. In the end, it's a small price to pay.
