I went to the dermatologist about some hair loss(totally unrelated to the band). Long story short I cant do anything to my hair for 3 months except wash/shampoo and wear wigs! i cried like a baby. no weave!!!!!ugh! but on a totally opposite and positive note, when i picked up my prescription from Walmart i decided to buy a pair of XL scrub pants( i usually wear 2X and they are too big) and lo and behold i can fit them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM SOOOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!!! HAPPY DANCE HAPPY DANCE!!!!!!!:D

I know how good that feels! On previous diets I'd only gotten down to a 2XL in scrubs and shirts and stuff. The day I was like ok let me try and the XL scrubs fit I felt the best I'd felt in years. It's a great feeling and congrats!!! Recently I started wearing large scrubs, though the pants are a little uncomfortable still, I was pulling my XL pants up every 5 minutes and that was really annoying.

Congrats on the scrubs! I really enjoy reading these posts! They give others at the beginning of their journey (like me) hope and inspiration and the confidence that we too can succeed!!!

Thank you for that!

Congrats! The wigs will be fine. They are much cheaper. I wore them all the time when I was growing out my hair to go natural. I just got someone to braid my hair underneath. It should make your hair grow fast just as long as you keep it washed, conditioned, and moisturized.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
