Topic: Ok, am I the only one still loosing hair??
Alright, I love the weightloss but the hairloss I don't, it seems to be falling out more and more. Not bald yet, but I don't want to look like Mrs. Clean either. I'm eating lots of protein, just to think 5 mo. ago I would have given up my hair to loose weight! I would just like it to stop anytime soon...or at least slow down. I think I'm loosing a hair with every pound! Am I the only one???

You will below that 200 mark soon. Then you will just have to set a new goal and keep moving downward. Hope you are enjoying buying yourself lots of new clothes. Best of luck for continued success.

Topic: RE: Please come in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets celebrate Sounds like you are doing all the right things. I understand about the long periods between weight loss. I will go 2-3 weeks with no loss then drop 5/7 lbs at once. Like you I've been averaging 10-13 lbs the last few months. I am looking forward to see the needle below the 200 mark one day. The scales don't really mean much they are just a piece of junk metal. The real reward is how the weight loss makes you feel. Anybody besides me still worried that they'll lose the weight and then start to gain again? I can't seem to quit obsessing about something to do with this surgery. First it was getting approval, then wondering if the day would ever come for surgery, after surgery the obsession moved to worrying about not losing the weight, and now it's about losing it and then gaining it back. Maybe I am just obsessive? Keep up the good work and one day we can look back and laugh about all our doubts. Good Luck.

Dawn, I'm so glad to hear that your kids play with your bat wings!!! My daughter who is 16 just loves to sit and play with mine. I have recently started wearing my tank tops. I resisted for a while, but decided that my arms flapping in the breeze were my own personal trophies!!! Thanks for the laugh, Susan

Topic: RE: New Bras...
Hi Catherine! That is such a cool feeling! I too, have had to get new bras and underwear! I was afraid to wear some of them with skirts and dresses for fear that I would lose them! The melting is great! I just hope it takes all the skin with it! As for my period - I am more hungry in general - not necessarily just the munchies. But in turn - I don't feel like eating during my period. So I think my body adjusts itself. Take care! Barbie 281/216/150ish
