My Weight Loss Story
I am 17 months post-op and down 89lbs. I've been maintaining my weight, but I'm nervous because I'm actually in the process of making a "Bari baby". This is something I've never shared before, so shhh! My children are my "why", and I am a lover of life. I just want to live a healthy, amazing, loving life. A little bit about me: Two weeks post-op from gastric sleeve surgery, I started experiencing severe dry, itchy skin and hair loss in chunks and clumps. So, I went to Walgreens, Walmart, etc., and bought tons of hair care products. That's when I quickly learned I had skin sensitivity. I then bought "Organic Products", or so I thought. I realized that just because a product says it's organic doesn't mean it truly is. So, I decided to create my own organic hair care products. After 11 days of consistent use of my hair growth oil, my hair grew back, and my skin repair oil provided instant relief within 24 hours. My best friend at the time was recently diagnosed with Alopecia. I made her a bottle of oil, and the hair growth oil grew her hair back as well. She then started telling her friends and co-workers about it. The product grew their hair back and blossomed into Bariatric Hair and Skin CareI am officially the Co-Owner of Bariatric Hair and Skin Care, where we have one of the best hair growth oils and skin repair essential oils. We are about to launch our shampoo and conditioner as well! Because of my obesity, I am now a business and homeowner. I never thought that this would be a result of my bariatric hair loss. I am so grateful! 🍏🤗🌸
