Thank again everyone for your kind words, you know how to make a girl feel good about herself.

As far as my stats, they are on my profile so please check there and on my signature :)

hair loss, I had it mostly within the first 6 months. I had thicker hair to begin with and there were times it was coming out in handfuls when I would wash it. It never got to a point where others noticed, other than my hair dresser. I did everything, Vitamins, Biotin, but Biotin only helps with regrowth not the prevention of falling out. Now my hair is growing back, This is awful! Not that is coming back but the fact I have a head full of new baby hair that is untamable! LOL. I can't wear my hair back otherwise I look like I got electrocuted, I have fly aways and I don't want to put gel or anything in it because it makes my ears stick out hahaha.

My skin I haven't had any skin issues, yes i have a lot of excess skin, but I knew that was going to happen with how much I have to lose. But I would rather have excess skin that can be hidden with body smoothers then be where I was anyday!

I can't believe it's already a year since my surgery. I love my results thus far' date=' I still want to lose and it has gotten a lot tougher now that I am past the year mark. 144 pounds down so far and don't regret a single moment of this journey :) First pic day of surgery, 2nd pic was taken Sunday :)[/quote']

Wow! You look amazing!

You look sweet, girlfriend! Congrats. You are an inspiration to me as a 2 month post surgery gal who is struggling with slow weight loss.

Can you say more about it being harder to lose now that you are a year out. Do you mean that the weight no longer comes off even when you eat like you did while it peeled off of you or that your appetite is harder to manage or is it something else. Inquiring minds want to know!

      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! 😞
