FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved



Recommended Posts

I talked to the surgeon & the nut' date=' they both said this is normal. Keep your Protein high which will help it slow down, but to expect the Hair loss until you stop losing. I am going to get my hair cut shorter to help with the regrowth.[/quote']

I'm also losing a lot of hair, check o you tube for natural hair regrowth treatment. I started using onions and apple cider vinegar so far I see new regrowth it stinks but worth it. Check it out!

Psychologically, I'm at the worst stall ever!!!! Been weighing in between 201-202 for a week! Why can't I just hit ONEderland already???

Technically I don't even think it's a stall, it's just torture! Lol

Weight loss -wise I'm doing great!

SW: 264

CW:201-202

Surgery 2-12-13!!!

And just discovered that edamame is one of my slider foods... *sarcastic* woo!

I love reading everyone's progress!! Keep it up!!

Start weight 228

Surgery weight 216

Today's weight 178

Total of 50 pounds in 3 1/2 months

The only problem is I'm losing too much hair. I'm drinking/ eating all my Protein and Vitamins. Also taking 10,000 Mg of Biotin. Not sure why my hair is falling out so much. I'm so afraid of being bald. However I'm very happy with the weight loss. I'm 27 pounds to my goal. I am able to eat everything I desire so far, minus eggs. I can eat eggs but my sleeve doesn't really like it so I'm staying away from it. I can use some advice on the Hair loss, Pls...

When we lose enough protein in our diet to lose our hair it takes 3-4 months for us to lose hair. So the hair you are losing now (myself included) is probably from around the time of our surgery. Keep doing what you are doing and be mindful it will take a few months to notice the diffence.

5'2 1/2"

Weight day of surgery: 183 (I didn't do the post op diet)

Surgery date: 2/28/13

Current Weight: 138

I have had a little bit of Hair loss but then again, I have always had thin hair. I have been excercising since 6 weeks after my surgery date. I feel GREAT. I have annoyed my family by telling them my weight every time my weight goes down. It's so exciting I want to tell every stranger I see out in the street. I have to admit, I haven't followed a specific diet. Whatever i want, I eat although it is just a bite or two.

I enjoy reading everyones progress. Congrats to everyone!

I can still wear my clothes so I don't feel it much...they are really baggy....there are a few pants I can't wear because they are too big.

      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!!
