WLS Success-through Powerful Positive Attitudes
Recent Posts
Thank you so much. Hey I'll be in Cincinnati and Houston! Thank you for your kind words. And hey even though it's not about the hair so much...I do see things and feel things that other people don't sometimes. It can be good and it can be bad. I pick up feelings of people and animals that suffer so that's not so good.
So glad your hair is doing well!!!!!!!!!!!

SHE IS ESP...
EXTRA SPECIAL PERSON
and YES it is a BIG relief when the hair loss sloooows down and finally stops to a normal degree of shed. I was thrilled when mine finally stopped because it started early only about 4 weeks out from surgery- most people start at about month 3. YIKES talk about panic mode.
Now I'm just a happy happy camper!
Congratulations on getting past the extreme shedding!
I love how much more patient I have become. I'm not sure why I am more patient, maybe from teaching myself to slow down as I eat or to eat more mindfully. It seems to have worked in other areas of my life as well.
SOOOOO happy to be SLEEVED and living a healthier lifestyle. GREAT post, Anne! I LOVE your all the positives that you shared!!

My Dear Friends thank you for your input. I'm sorry it's taken so long for me to respond.
I promised myself that I would not focus on the numbers on the scale but go by how I felt, and I have stopped sticking to that, I found myself working to get to certain numbers, then once I get there, I worked towards smaller numbers. As it is now I don't have much of a figure, something I always had. Even at 250 I still had sort of an hourglass going on. (over that I just looked blobie ) I think once I get the plastics done I will feel a little more confident. I really don't want a lot done, Boobs for sure!!! And a little tightening here and there. I can't say I am really "ok" with gaining weight but I think as I start to look better it will get easier.
Thank you again my dear friends
Nice. Thank You

First things first: Yvonne Really is a Gem!!
I was having trouble with hair loss before my surgery (I have pcos) Last summer I ran out of shampoo and started using DH's 'Loreal Vive Pro for men' and of course I kept forgetting to buy shampoo. I beleive it has helped thicken my hair a bit. I still use it. I shampoo the top of my head with it and let it stay for a few then I shampoo with mine (it smells kinda manly lol) It's inexpensive ($5-$6 a bottle) and I think it works as well as any of the expensive stuff I've used, and I am really hard on my hair!! I wa**** everyday, blow dry, flat Iron, then hot roll. So I'm prolly pretty lucky I still have any.....

You are a gem Yvonne. Someday maybe I'll make it to a conference and shake your hand.

Live that life and enjoy every moment. Relish every minute and live it as full as you can...just don't forget. That's all you have to do. That's when we get in a little trouble...when we forget where we came from. Never forget that you realized your dream! I am so happy for you and your family!! I hope you'll be reporting on these trips over and over and over.
