8 weeks post-op

[lvidacovich 372]

Morning all! I'm chronicling my journey here so it'll be easy for me to find haha.

Tomorrow will be 8 weeks since surgery. I woke up this morning to 271 on the scale. HW: 353 (June, I've been higher before), SW: 327, CW: 271, GW: 210.

That's 56 since surgery and 82 overall. I'm pretty dang happy with that. Weight loss is slowing down and being sporadic - last week it was almost a pound each day and then I stalled for 3 days and woke up this morning to a 3 pound drop. I just hope it continues at 2 pounds a week or more so I can make my weight for Hawaii! Need to be at 250 for a bunch of the stuff we wanna do.

I had a rough week at work last week and had my first true test of my normal habit of going to food for stress. I worked out instead. I don't know that it helped me or made me feel better but I did it and didn't let food do any damage.

I feel like Hair loss is starting despite taking Biotin, collagen and using the Nioxin system. I'll let my barber take care of it next month.

Anyways - keep it up out there!

sounds like you're doing great!

from everything I've heard & read, if Hair loss is gonna happen, it's gonna happen. There's not much you can do about it. Some people claim things like Biotin helps, but others say it did pretty much nothing for them. Just know that you're the only one who's likely to notice and that it WILL grow back.
