"Hair" I am again!



Recommended Posts

Just a quickie, how do you lose a pound REALLY fast? Have your hair cut off! I did it today, as I was losing so much (although it seems to have slowed down now, thank Goodness!). I am pretty good at cutting my hair (done it for decades), so with my husband's help, we did a blunt-cut, so my new hair growing in can catch up quicker. Sad to see it go, because I like to tie it back when riding the motorcycle, and to quote Amy in Little Women, it is my "one beauty", and I'll miss it, for now! It appears a lot fuller, now, and since summer is coming (although it may not seem like it), the new style will be cooler. My fastest weight-loss day yet!

Totally get you on tying back the hair for a ride. My hair is to my shoulder blades and I'm hoping that I won't have to do a bit chop. I bet it looks cute, and sometimes a drastic change is just what you need for a kickstart.????????<<

I was thinking I might need to go to a slightly larger size helmet, as I'm concerned the snugger fit of my current helmet might pull on my hair a little too much, pulling out more than necessary. Have you had this issue? It's always something!

I actually put my hair up in a cap, net or something usually. This way the helmet doesn't pull on my hair. Not as cute as the ponytail hanging. If I wrap my hair around my head, and shake my head as I pull the helmet off, my hair falls pretty good.

I like the bandana idea, but doesn't it get hot in the summer, when it's really hot out? Went out on the bike today, and I couldn't believe how small my head is minus the hair/head fat(?!!!) I've lost!!! My normal helmet is wayyyyy too loose for safety's sake, so, POOR me, I have to go get another (and it'll be CUTE this time!!!) helmet, and while I'm at it, how about a jacket that will FIT this newer, smaller body?! I THINK SO!!!

Fellow motorcyclists - PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!! God Bless....

I am just starting to look at shorter hairstyles since I am starting to get small handfuls of hair everytime I shower. I never thought about not being able to pull my hair up . Yikes, that will be interesting out on the ATVs and when we are cruising topless in the Jeep. I never thought about my helmet size changing either. Maybe this time I will get a cool helmet that I like. You have to find the positives in the life changes we are going through.

I just got my hair cut last week, just under my chin in a page-boy type, with bangs. Not too bad, and it looks fuller. The best part is that it doesn't get all ratty from the ride. Who knows, I may just keep it this way!! NEVER thought I'd say that!

      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! 😞
