Guest guest Posted February 6, 2004 Report Share Posted February 6, 2004 Thanks, Mimi, and no, I'm not a nurse. I'm just a regular person with an interest in nutrition (I was brain injured as the result of a nutritional deficiency). I spent 6 month researching this surgery and the nutritional implications of it *before* I decided to do it, and have continued the research since my surgery 11 months ago. I've lost a total of 145 lbs., and am about 25-30 lbs from my goal of 150 lbs (I'm 5'10 " tall). Also, re: the hair loss from trauma - I've been thru it twice. Ten years ago, when I was brain injured, and a few months ago, after my surgery. Talked to several docs about it then, and researched the surgical aspects of it. Normal stuff, happens to many, but not all. 320highest/305 pre-op/180?now/150 goal << Subject: Re: Jayne and hair RACHEL, THIS IS MIMI I JUST WAN TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOUR COMMENTS...WHAT DO YOU DO?
