early changes

Jan 21, 2015

I had my Sleeve on January 8th.  Aside from being down 26 pounds and feeling really good, I have noticed something that I did not have with the Lap Band.  Normally I have to tweeze the hairs on my chin and upper lip EVERY day, every other day at the VERY most.  I tweezed the day after I got home and I went to go do it today after going longer than I usually do and I found there was NO hair to tweeze?  All the chinny hairs are not coming back so far!  Wondering if it is a shift in my hormones.  Obviously a good one, as far as I am concerned!  I have not noticed any increase in hair loss on my head.  So it's not that.  And my complexion looks really good!  My little zitty things are gone.  My color has pinked up from the pale I was right after surgery but the splotchiness  uneven color I was before the surgery is gone.  It looks more smooth and even.  The little whiteheads on my cheeks are gone.  The flaky skin around the creases in my nose is gone.  I look younger. Its crazy.  Must be all the protein and all the water I have been drinking. Whatever it is, I'm loving it.  I will be going back to work on Feb 9 and I bet they will notice a change.:-)  I have been reading other peoples posts on this and other sites and I feel so grateful that I am doing so well.  I know some people have a harder time with this surgery than I am having and I know that they are losing slower so I am extra grateful for that.  I am blessed
