You seem to be doing fine with a low BMI your weight loss is not far from the average December sleever, Keep your head up you dont have far to go besides look at it like this the slower the lest likely you will have saggy skin. fast looser's have a lot of excess skin your slow loss may work in your favor later =-) .

One thing that is helped me with getting all of the Water in is buying bottles of water by the case. Every morning I put my 5 bottles of water on the kitchen counter. By night, if I have any left, I don't allow myself any coffee, Protein hot chocolate, etc. until all of the water is gone!

My signature is up to date. Losses have been slow but steadier last few weeks. I'm not counting calories or tracking food anymore, I may start again if I stall lol. I hate stalls.

How's everyone's Hair loss? I lose handful of hair daily thank goodness I have a lot of hair or I'd be bald!

So far no hair loss I pray it stays that way I heard not everyone looses hair.

About the same as you, but mine is more like 'shedding' which I did all the time before surgery anyways...

My Hair loss is no more or less than usual so far. Of course I expect that to change any day now. I even had 5 inches cut off my hair as a precautionary measure.

My doc says 5mg Biotin and Omega 3s. Evening primrose oil pills also help. I can't take while on Coumadin.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
