    You look great but I have a few questions… I just recently logged on to youtube so you may have answered this previously. What made you choose lap band versus bypass? I’ve been approved for bypass but now I’m considering lap band instead.

    Hi again, Melanie. I do have another question…did you lose a lot of hair post surgery? I’ve been attending a bariatric weight loss group and the common factor for quite a few is hair loss. And did you take anything for that issue? Thanks again for posting your vids…they’re truly an inspiration! I’m still waiting to get mine approved…

    Your Consultation is on my B-Day. Thank you for following my journey. Good luck w/ getting everything approved and ready for the surgery. Keeping my fingers crossed for u.

  • skymoon1982 posted: 24 Aug at 9:54 am

    I now could eat w/ them since hitting goal. Im not too controlling over my diet anymore. However the band does restrict me from eating a big portion. Im only limited as to how much I can eat. When I was on a strict diet, I would avoid sitting down at the dinner table. LOL

  • skymoon1982 posted: 24 Aug at 10:52 am

    Your getting banded on my B-day. That rocks!! Dont be scared, everything will be ok and thank you for always thinking of me. That is so sweet. Best of luck w/ your journey and please keep in touch.

  • skymoon1982 posted: 24 Aug at 11:18 am

    Thanks for understanding about plastic surgery. Most people are very anti-plastic surgery but I like you, I think its the ultimate reward especially since im going to hit 1 yr post-op.

I have some other questions if you don’t mind. Again you look great and your videos are really helping me through this journey.

    Hi Melanie. My surgery is set for October 22nd, here in colorado springs. I am excited and a little nervous. My biggest fear is failing. I am at 295 right now. I’m about to start my liquid diet. I just hope that I can do this.

  • sorshavampyr posted: 24 Aug at 2:41 pm

    I am currently starting week 3 with my lap band. Your videos are such a wonderful inspiration when I am feeling down or am having an off day.

    Thank you so much Melanie. You are beautiful.
