    TMI**** Women ONLY****

    I was on my period when I had my surgery. They had me wear a pad and mesh underwear like you wear just after giving birth.
  3. I am 43. Had sleeve surgery this past August. I was 42 at time of surgery. I have lost a lot of hair! It is finally slowing down though.
  4. Has any experienced bald spots from their hair loss? How long did it last? I'm almost 5 months post op and losing massive amounts of hair Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  5. I went in August 10 and was discharged August 13, but I had a lot of nausea so I wasn't getting my fluids in. It's usually just an overnight stay.
  6. Sleeved August 10, 2016 SW 282 CW 225 I can eat almost anything, just not very much. My hair is falling out in handfuls though????
  7. I'm a little concerned. I had my 3 month post op on 11/22. I ran out of Vitamins and supplements about 2 weeks ago. All of my levels were normal except my B12 and parathyroid, which were high. Anyone else experience this? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Post op hair loss

    I started losing my hair at 2 months post op, I'm 3 months post op now and still losing it. Luckily I had thick hair to begin with. I just hope I stop losing it before I have to resort to extensions.
  15. Thank you! I had my first stall at the 4 week mark and it lasted for 3 maybe 4 weeks, it was the most frustrating thing ever
  16. I will be 3 months post op on 11/10/16 and I'm only down 52 pounds. Getting discouraged and frustrated. Anyone else with slow weight loss??? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  17. Thank you. I'm not sure what I expected. I also have a bad habit of weighing myself right before I go to bed and first thing in the morning. I may need to throw out my scale.
  18. Thank you everyone. For some reason I thought the weight loss should be faster. Thank you for the chart. That helps a lot.
  19. how do I update my ticker?

  20. My husband is 6'2" and weighs maybe 175 pounds, maybe less. I'm 5'4" and weighed 282 on my surgery date which was 08/10/2016, I'm only down to 232 right now, but I have never told him my weight either. I may tell him after I get back down to 160 or so.

    Ketosis?

    I had Ketosis for the first month post op. The Doctors never forewarned me. It was terrible, no matter how many times I brushed my teeth and tongue or how much mouthwash I used. I'm glad it's over now. I was sleeved 8/10/16 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  22. These were my bruises from the heparin injections. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
