...getting compliments on my hair, lol. It always seems to be when I haven't fixed it either. I think it's misdirected. I think people notice that I look a little different, can't put their finger on why and assume it my hair. Just thought I'd share...kinda funny. Anyone else experiencing anything like this?

I have experienced that in the beginning, but I do feel a difference in my hair almost like the texture is a bit different. I have also experienced Hair loss, which i read up that thats normal the first year. So maybe the thinning is making my hair better? LOL who knew :)

I had a Chinese woman who kept asking me if I had cut my hair. Took her 6 months to decide I had lost weight! LOL I think she was afraid to offend me!

I think people don't want to come of rude by asking if a person has lost weight so they acknowledge the change with a different complement , just my thought on it :)

Agree! No one said a word to me until I had lost 50lbs. I figure they didn't comment when I gained the weight, so I shouldn't expect them to comment when I was losing. Lol

People can't figure out weight loss cause they are used to seeing you at the old weight. They have asked me did i change mu hair, makeup or glasses!!

I find the opposite. People flat out comment about my weight loss. I am not offended because I don't think they mean any harm.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
