Well, mostly all is well. My hair is falling out by the handfuls. It fell out when I had my C section - but not this bad. I asked the Dr. why and his answer - "There are 2 things that cause rapid hair loss, major surgery and rapid weight loss" well, there you go. I have been assured that it should start to grow back in about 6 months. You know what other interesting thing I learned was a side effect from rapid weight loss? Pregnancy!! Who knew? Seems like fat girls all over the world struggle with the hormone issues that make you get pregnant ( yes I'll raise my hand here), and when you lose enough weight somehow it kicks your fertility not only back into line but back into CRAZY fertility. They warned and warned us about it. Interesting.
I'm struggling a bit with vitamins - I can't keep them down. With food, without food they are awful. So I have to figure that piece out. The food is not an issue at all - I seem to be fine with most things (except bread, rice and pasta). My brain is an issue. My brain is still fat and still tells me all day long..."have a snack!, eat that!, go to the drive thru!" I'm working on combating my brain right now. It's become my biggest challenge, to tell my brain (and eyeballs) to SHUT UP!
My only other issue is my ass, it's killing me. I thought it was from all the times I have landed on it in my clumsy life and broken the tailbone. It hurts so bad to sit down! I was thrilled to hear someone else say (in my weight loss group) that their ass hurt too! We learned that it was because we have been sitting on our FAT asses for so long that now that we have lost weight so quickly we are now sitting on our tailbones and they have been cushioned for so long that now they are sore and we have to slowly "break them in".
I'm breaking mine in like this because I just can't take the pain anymore. Thanks goodness I didn't get rid of the boppy! It works like a charm!
