Hello again!!
So how's everyone doing? have not been in here for a while, it's just been crazy anyways just wanted to know how everyone is doing and ask if anyone else is losing their hair cause I am , oh well the MD told me it would happen just could not picture it. I'm down so far 52 lbs which I was worried about cause u know I see everyone losing all sorts of weight but Dr. Ali said it was a good rate that I'm not going to fast or too slow, that I'm doing great (still in my mind I should be losing more) anyways let me know your thoughts.
Hey patty,
welcome back, what took you so long. Yeah, the hair is falling out, but we've all been assured that this is only temperary and it will grow back. I've been advised to increase my intact of biotin and zinc to help w/ the hair lose.
Down 52#, that's great. I think we're all in the same boat w/ worring about our weight lose. We all read about other's losing more or less and wonder if there's something wrong w/ us. Personally I'm just happy I'm losing, although my surgeon expects me to lose 60 pounds by April. This way I'll be down to 200#. Well, I'm down to 238# so that's not to bad. Hopefully I'll get to his goal for April. If I don't, it won't bother me as long as I keep losing.
Keep up the good work.
Donna, sfy
Hi Patty!
Congrats on the loss!! You are doing great!
As for the hair loss....does anyone have a hat??? I'm losing it like crazy too. I can't wait for this to stop. I'm taking in plenty of protein and my zinc and biotin are good too, so I don't know what else I can do other than wait and pray I don't go bald! I have been wanting to have my hair cut shorter, but haven't as I want to keep plenty of length so if I need to do a combover I can.
Have a good one!! Post again soon!!!

Hey Girl,
I dont think I have ever seen you on here.. You are from the LBC?? I am in Orange. I think we had the same medical group.. I had Dr. Leport.. I think Dr. Ali is in the same place? GREAT JOB on the weight loss!! and yes, I am losing my hair.. alot of it.. but doesnt bother me much. I think I will just shave it like our friend Britt.. lol. naw just teasing.. I feel it is really thin on top. I told my hair dresser I looked like Michael Bolten from back in the day.. hee heee.. She said is wasnt that bad.. You can mostly tell in my hair line.. I will take some picutres soon and post them.. I really dont have any good ones yet..
Well anyways! keep in touch! Maybe we can meet up sometime!
Luvs and Hugs!

Hi, Patty!!! Welcome back. Congrats on the 52 lbs weight loss. You are doing great. Everyone is losing at different speeds here. Don't get caught up in what everyone else is doing. If your doctor is happy with your progress, you should be. Keep up the great work and don't be a stranger. BTW...I haven't started losing my hair that I can tell. I hear it does slow down. Hang in there.
Hugs,
Tabby
