Topic: RE: 5 months in and hair loss ????ANd weight loss stopped help
Like everyone is telling you, your probably not getting enough protein. Biotin helps, or is supposed to. Also, get you some shampoo with green tea. It stimulates the follical.
Topic: RE: Liquid Diet. Surgery Oct. 24

Try the Isopure. I know it may taste nasty @ first, but you get use to it. I got the big tub of powder, the fruit punch, or whatever it is. It's been a week today, and I still hate to drink it, but I know I have too. Get the zero carb. Like I posted be4, when I want a substance in what I drink, I drink my soy protein w/milk. I know it's a no no, but I have no gained a lb. or anything back yet. Like my hubby tricked me this wknd, and I cheated. I freaked out, and weighted myself on Sat., I didn't gain anything. I felt soooo sick... Good Luck. ~~~~danielle
Topic: Surgery Tuesday!
Well, after 50 years of dieting I am having a RNY on Tuesday at 8:00 a.m. I am finally calmer than I have been over the last week. I have been so emotional about this surgery. Most of the posts I have read state how excited they are. I wish I was excited. I have cried a river this last week. I don't really know why. I was kind of angry that I have to resort to such an invasive procedure to lose weight. But now that it's finally here, I am resolved that I will be OK and I can get on with the rest of my life. I am 61 years old and went on my first doctor supervised diet at 12. I won't look back anymore. Please say a prayer for me.

Hi, Kim: I'm scheduled for Tuesday too. It's been a wild ride for over a week now. I'm much more calm today than I have been, but emotionally, it has been hard. Mine is scheduled for 8:00 a.m. and I have to leave the house at 5:30, so there will be little time to think about it on Tuesday. Good luck to you!
