Hair Loss. At about 3 months post-op mine started falling out. Then at about 5 months post-op it REALLY started falling out. It’s sad every day to have literally HANDFULS coming out. But I’ve been told that after 6 months, it stops falling out and starts growing in. So, we’ll see.
There are tons of things they say I can try. But I haven’t heard of anything actually working, and working well. It’s just one of those things we have to sacrifice.

I did it. I made up one more day. I’ve now lost 78 pounds. I wanted to hit this goal by December 11th, so now I’m just 2 days behind. Today I got rid of my size 38C bras. I am now wearing a size 36B. Oh how totally depressing. =( I don’t want to lose my boobs! =( Oh well, as my husband said… would you rather be 78 pounds heavier? Nope. I weigh 174 pounds. My next goal is to lose another 10 pounds by January 29th. I realize that the closer I am getting to my final goal, the slower the weight is going to come off. So that’s why I’ve given myself so much time. We’ll see…

Uuugggghhhh. I didn’t make it! I wanted to be at minus 78 pounds by today. I am sooo close… again. Hopefully I can meet it earlier than 3 days from now so I will be less behind than last time.

I did it! I’ve made up some ground! I’ve now lost 73 pounds! I wanted to hit this goal by November 27th, so now I’m just 3 days behind. Today I got rid of my size 14/16 and 2x clothes. I am now wearing a size 13/14 and XL!! I can no longer shop at Lane Giant!!! =0 I weigh 179 pounds. My next goal is to lose another 5 pounds by December 11th. That is totally doable.
I am sooo close!!! I was so hoping to have met my next goal today of being at minus 73 pounds. I haven’t hit that goal, but I am sooooo CLOSE! You should be hearing back from me in a couple days!
