My mom would have screaming nightmares if she thought i was doing those teenage years over again.

Been through the haircut thing myself, no recent piercings though, but plan on one once i can locate my belly button.
The haircut thing for me is due to hair loss that 'supposedly' just happens after surgeries. I've had 9 surgeries, some pretty drastic, but never experienced hair loss before. I'm thinking it's the weight loss, surgery, and diet change all in one.
Your ticker looks GREAT !! Congats on the surgery and weight loss.
