Hey honey....sounds like we all are in the same boat.. I already shed bad, but my hair is FALLING OUT bad now....handfuls..Im trying not to worry about it though. And on weight loss....wow I havent moved since before Christmas..I keep going from 176 to 183...every day is different... I have dropped a size since then though so Im trying not to freak out... I knew a stall was suppose to come our way about now. Im getting weak on my carb cravings...I actually ate a rice krispy treat! what was I thinking? I was so upset....mind you I call 2 bits EATING but still it was BAD! I prayed I would get sick off of it but I didnt...my tummy ached but didnt freak out..then THAT scared me too... I feel like head games are a huge deal with me right now...my emotions bounce all over the place.... What about you guys?

I had my surgery the same day as you and I am feeling the same way as you. I had lost 23 lbs pre-op and I have lost 80 post op. Like you, I am not complaining! I am very happy with my weight loss but I have only lost 7 lbs in the last month. My hair is falling out too and I have really stepped up my protien in the last week. I hope that will help. I still want to lose 60 lbs so I hope it speeds up again. I don't feel like I am eating very much. Take care and good luck and thanks for posting your concerns. It makes me feel better that I am not alone!

Patty, Congratulations on the wt loss milestones....sounds like you are doing great. We all August surgeries are slowing a tad right now..but we will pick up again...and lose, lose , lose....take care . Sue

I'm really wondering if im ever going to reach my goal. Im 5 months out today and have lost 85 lbs not complaining there but im not losing like I was and my hair is falling out very fast I always have a hand full of hair after a shower any help for me?:shurg:

Hi Jen, You are doing great, 77lbs in 5 months is great. You are two lbs ahead of me and I had surgery 2 weeks before you. I guess we all lose a different rates depending on how much we have to lose. I know last week on here I saw a couple people that had already lost 100 pounds, I didn't feel so go about myself them. However like I have been told a hundred times already is don't compare myself to others and be happy with my journey as it is. I know about that competitive nature. I have two sisters that have a gastric bypass one is 3 years out and at goal and the other one is almost 2 years out and not at goal yet. I want to do as well as they have and am determined to get the weight off, it is something in my nature. I am competitive no matter what it is and sometimes it gets me in trouble. Anyway, you are doing great and just keep up the good work. Patty
