January 10th-3 weeks from tomorrow

Jan 10, 2010

I just got back from grocery shopping for my liquid phase after the surgery on 2/1.  Friday I had a group meeting.  It was a bunch of folks like me who are getting the surgery.  In came the coordinator, then the psychiatrist, then the nutritionist, and then the staff nurse.  I'm telling you, the Duke Metabolic Weight Loss Surgery process is a well oiled machine.  No question is stupid and believe me, after belonging to obesityhelp.com I have asked about a million questions!  I'm going to ask my stylist what kind of hairstyle would camoflauge my upcoming hair loss.  Not being negative, just being real.  I was told 70% of folks lose a great amount of hair after the surgery because their organs and other parts of their body need the nutrition and there's not enough left over for hair to stay healthy. 

I also researched how to escape plastic surgery after weight loss.  I guess if you're young enough, excercise and creams can stave off the plastic surgeon.  We'll see if 44 is 'young enough'!

Enough for now, I'll be back next week.....
