-allergies are a bit worse - actually I have fewer sinus headaches than before -joint aches and pains - yes but I had them before too, now I think it's from increased activity -always cold - try FREEZING -hair fell out and grew back ultra curly - I lost quite a bit of hair, it hair was wavy before and it's growing back straighter (I miss the waves) But like you said, happier and healthier than ever before.

Hey Barbara, I too am always cold! I never had allergies before but I have been fighting something for the last month runny/stuffy nose, cough and congestion. I think it is allergy as it hasn't gotten worse and is better some days then other but I am ready to see a doctor. I am tired of it. I don't have the aches and pains, at least not worth talking about. I did lose alot of hair and it continues to fall out. I am so tired of it and wi**** would stop, it's all over my bathroom everyday. Congratulations on your marriage, I wish you the best of everything! Jean

wonderful for you! Keep us posted and we want to see pictures! Barbara

WELL that sucked. I just had a whole reply that was interesting and funny. But it just disappeard. Computers Anyway, My tailbone hurts too. It is so pointy I have taken to carrying around a donut pillow. I am always FREEZING. My cute little skinny butt is always covered up under a sweatshirt and a turtle neck and I am saggy and droopy in places I didn't know could sag or droop. But I am happy. Finally! I am marrying MY best friend in an all the bells and whistles fete in March. Figured it was appropriate as I started this journey in March 05, got engaged in March 06, thought I'd go for a March hat trick... now If I can just get pregnant on my honeymoon.... all will be well. Life is good as they say. Life is very good. TERREE

Well, I was always cold before...hair fell out and grew back frizzy...found bunches of "knots" in my neck, armpit, groin area-doctor is checking them out on Thursday. I got a respiratory infection and lost some weight. According to the doctor, I lost "too much" weight and he has been trying to get me to gain back 15lbs. Been trying since last December-no luck, but mostly staying the same. I tolerate most foods-can't do leftover chicken or broccoli of any kind *pout*. Fighting depression, but I am very happy with my surgery decision. Still feel amazed when I grab those size 2L jeans out of the closet and slip them on. I am so glad you are doing well, and congrats on the weddin! Becky
