Topic: RE: WAKE UP, MINNESOTA!!!
Oh... and the reason why I'm seldom on this board is that most of you don't seem have my surgery (the VSG), and I prefer talking with people who've had a similar surgery...

Hey, that is very similar to my favorite quote.... "If you keep on doing what you've always done, you'll keep on getting what you've always got".

Yep, This is really a time to stick to our safe foods. Carbs or snacking can really mess up your mental side.

Please spay and neuter your pets!
I'm one of the ones that lost a LOT of hair post-op and got about 3/4ths of it back. Biotin and Nioxin didn't help me. I've been on rogaine since I was 16 and even using that didn't get all it back. I'm still glad I had the surgery though!
Please spay and neuter your pets!
Topic: I am a bottomless pit today...
Has this happened to anybody else? I don't know why, but I just can't STOP EATING today. I am trying to eat healthier options, but I had a snack mid-morning today, which I never do. More snacking this afternoon...
I have been exercising a lot, and trying to ramp up the intensity, but today was an "easy" day. Maybe not enough exercise?
I don't know but I need someone to take the fork away (figuratively speaking.)

I have 1 more dietitian visit then the send out to the insurance company. I hope everything is in order. I have been doing this since January.
Topic: RE: Approaching 18 mo post surgery - where is my hair?
I lost about 1/3 of my hair between 3-7 months out. Now it is just about as thick as it was before and I'm almost a year out. I was kind of hoping the hair would not have come back since I have so much to begin with. Congrats on the amount of weight loss you have achieved. Way to go.

I still need to get on when I get a chance. I am only 16 weeks out with my new tool and just when I think I have it figured out, it reminds me who's the boss! I really could never have gotten to this point without the vast knowledge and support of all of you!
Topic: RE: camping 5 weeks post-op
One of the things I like to do with a protein bar is to slice it into bite size pieces and set is on a napkin, then I make a game out of it...I get a piece of it when I do something like walk in place, clean up an area of the campsite, stretching, etc...you get what I mean. See how long you can make it last!!! You can do this with other items too...I do it with fruit also. Enjoy your camping time!! Donna
