So September 12th was my 3 year surgiversary. I don't know why I've been putting off updating, but I think it's just hard to put into words everything this surgery has done for me or -rather - has enabled me to do for myself.

I wrote a blog post with my update and some of my favorite pictures from the journey. For those of you wondering if the surgery can work long term, read the post..... it can if you do!

Great post. You have been one of my big inspirations through this and so I am glad to see your still going strong.

Aww thank you! So sweet!

Thank you for sharing your story! Congratulations on keeping it off, all of the hard work was definitely worth it, you are inspiration. I am newly sleeved (11/3) and I just found your blog thanks to your post. I love how honest you are about hair loss, I have seen significant hair loss after this surgery (in a family member) and I was always intrigued. Even when the hair loss stopped it never went back to its normal self. I made a note of the products you recommended and I'm curious if taking those products BEFORE the hair loss occurs will help at all? I've heard many people say the Biotin supplements didn't really matter at all.

Congrats on starting your journey! I didn't find that biotin really helped. I don't know if the products I listed would help preventatively or not. I can say that now, 3 years post op, I'm back to a full, thick head of hair.
