I take 3000 of Biotin each day and 2 flax seed caplets a day to help with my hair. I have lost some, but you can't tell and the losing has stopped. Tammy

Hey Charlotte, Glad you are doing so well! Be proud of yourself. I am down 90 lbs since Dec 06 (lost 27 lbs before surgery) RNY Feb 5, 07. I went from size 24 to size 14! I still often wonder if I am going to make my goal which is still another 49 lbs away! I am struggling for every pound I lose (at least that is the way I feel)! I too have added new pic's to my post; so please check'em out! My hubby thinks I am fine right were I am now; he said your health and you look fine. I no longer use C-pap anymore, no more diabetes meds, no more B.P. meds; and take a whole lot less pain meds. I kept telling my hubby I still feel like the fat girl; and then one day we had a meeting function at Old Country Buffet; guess what I said (I FEEL REALLY SKINNY) ROTFLO! It is suprising when we go to a place like that and notice things we never have before! I exercise daily, treadmill 40 min., ex bike 15-20 min. I try to burn 400-500 calories a day. I still don't think for all I am doing that I am at the top of the class so to speak. Wishing you continued sucess, health; and happiness. Hugs, Judy R

I do not I repeat DO NOT have a scale in my house, I go to my sisters house and weigh on hers, she only lives a mile from me. If I had scales in my house it would drive me crazy with the fluctuations that happen every month. I weigh myself once or twice a month that way I usually don't see the difference or stalls and such. STEP AWAY FROM THE SCALES

Hello Donna let me first tell you what a wonderful job you are doing with your weight loss. My hair has been falling out for the past couple of months and I hate it. I take biotin daily. I have no clue if it is working since my hair is still falling out. But I think I have new hair that is coming in. So we will see. My doctor had told me that I should be consuming at least 70- 90 grams of protein a day. I have noticed if I get in all my protein my hair stops falling out but a day a screw up it starts falling out again. Also I have read that if you divide your weight in half that is the amount of protein that you should be consuming. I weigh in at 175 and when you divide that in half it is 87.5. I should be getting at least 87 grams of protein a day. Hope that helps you some. Diana
