I am losing so much hair! My hair is so thin. i do take my 60g of Protein a day I take Biotin pills and use the Multivitamin, Iron, Vitamin b Patches. Is there anything else i can do about it. I Dont wash My hair everyday. Yesterday i bought Surface Awaken Therapeutic Treatment. the whole kit. I hope it works, or else Im going to start using lace fronts lol.

Love salmon. Looks good! Going on my list for this week. You ALL killing me !
I’ve never done salmon in the oven...how long did u leave in the oven, and at what temp?

Looks good! So simple yet satisfying. I like to maple glaze things
Unsolicited Tip Alert: Don't forget to add honey to the food log (if you are depending on it for tracking) if the salmon is in fact honey glazed. You'd be surprised how many cals honey adds 😭

I can literally gain/lose 3+lbs of weight from Water retention (It's usually carbs and salt)

Last night’s dinner: t-bone lamb; broccolini; and frites. Before and after.

Restaurant. A spot called Stirr in Dallas.

Oh my I must go get some of this! Sweet baby ray’s was my favorite barbecue sauce I had no idea they made one with no sugar added. Oooo that looks amazing

Hi y’all..Hope everyone is having a great day. I’m 3 weeks out just wondering if y’all have any discomfort when drinking Protein Shakes? ? I can take about 5 sips then my stomach just starts cramping like lactose cramps. I drink Premier Protein but this past week it just feels like they r so thick and my stomach is like NOPE. Any suggestions on what else I can drink and will this continue once I start actually eating?? Right now I’m n the puréed diet but I eat like 3 bits and I’m done. I’m just worried about getting in my Protein.

Looks good! Restaurant or homemade?

I like data so I have been tracking my progress since weeks before surgery. Here is the chart I made myself. We are all different but you may find it interesting.

Everyone has their own method... I personally weighed everyday and it was good to see the numbers go down everyday.
The first 6 months the weight flew off me it was so good to see.

My home version of a mini charcuterie board, lol.
Artisan prosciutto, aged white cheddar and frozen red grapes: 209 calories.
Ate it all (surprisingly quickly!)

@WhatATool:-) I lost 19 lbs. the first month. I only weighed at the Doctor's office so I have no idea what I was earlier than that. While some might be disappointed by that number, I was thrilled. It was the most I'd ever lost in a month & I hadn't gained as I normally would have if I'd kept on as I was pre surgery. Now 15 years later, I am right where I want to be. I hope you will be, too.

Things I won't miss:
1) Eying a chair with arms and hoping I would fit in the seat!!
2) Not being able to stand up with pushing myself up on something
3) Support garments and pantyhose in the Florida heat...every day!
I'm sure there is much, much more!!

Omg, I can relate to your post! I always hated when people would say you have such a pretty face or you're pretty for your size! Arghhh, I always took it as you don't get to choose parts & pieces of me to like, my body is a 1 package deal!

I do not miss going to business meetings and looking to see if I am the fattest person in the room....
I do not miss that I WAS always the fattest person in the room
I don't miss shopping in the plus stores

I will not miss going to the doctor, no matter what my ailment, and being told "you have to lose weight first"
I will not miss being unable to tie my shoes
I will not miss getting rid of my "fat clothes" and all of my multiple-sized clothes in my closet (skinny clothes, skinny + 20 lbs clothes, skinny + 40 lbs clothes, etc)
I will not miss having to shop online for bras (and paying $75-$100 each!) because department stores don't carry my size
I will not miss the back and hip pain from just standing up
I will not miss having to get a seat belt extender on planes - and not being able to reach under the seat in front of me for my bag
I will not miss having an extremely hard time finding cute clothes that fit
I will not miss being dependent on other people for simple things I used to be able to do myself
I will not miss my back scrubber in the shower, because I'll be able to bend down and wash my feet without it

I won’t miss worrying if I will be the fattest person at the party, fitting in to booths, getting leg cramps, sweating, huffing and puffing, shopping only online, edema, swollen ankles and feet, avoiding family gatherings, being 100lbs over my husband’s weight, hiding behind clothing .

I wont miss saying I don't like amusement park because I can't fit on most of the rides.
I wont's miss people saying, you cute for a big girl...
I won't miss my feet swelling.
I won't miss not fitting in a booth.
I won't miss not wearing all my cute shoes because they hurt my knees to walk in them.
I wont miss being out of breath while climbing a flight of stairs.

Lol, that still happens to me now!

Sweating (I’m perfectly climate-controlled now).
Hiding from cameras (I loooove getting my pic taken, like ALL. THE. TIME.)
Snoring (I dont notice this, but Mr. is quite happy)
Packing a sh*t-ton of clothes whenever I leave the house for vacation or a day trip (Now, everything I need fits in my purse)
Being tired/winded at the tiniest exertion (I’ve got energy for DAYS)
Feeling shy/uncomfortable/self-conscious (i have so much confidence now its quite disgusting)
