  1. What kind of fruits can we eat?

      My team's rules were no tropical fruits no matter how small the amount (pineapple, mango, banana, papaya). Other fruits were okay as long as you were both hitting your protein target for the day (75 grams minimum) and not exceeding your carb limit for the day (50 grams minimum). In weight loss mode, I tend to stick to berries, apples, and peaches.

  2. Despite taking biotin and B-12 since June of 2015, it has finally happened to me! 10 months post op and I am seeing hair breakage around my temples and frontal scalp. Isn't this a bit late for hair breakage? I was expecting it around 3 to 6 months not 10 months post op. Veterans, how long did it take for you to go through this phase before hair started to grow back?

      I don't think hair breaking is a typical side effect from surgery. The normal side effect is hair completely falling out from the root, not breaking, and not 10 months post op. My guess is that you have something going on that is probably unrelated to your surgery. If I were in your shoes, I would start with asking my hairdresser, PCP, and dermatologist. Good luck!

      I liked a lot of the Syntrax Nectar flavors like Roadside Lemonade, Lemon Tea, and Dragonfruit.
