I am month 5 post op and about a month ago my hair starting falling out. I am getting my daily amount of protein. Any recommendations on how to stop my hair from falling out?

I am two weeks post opp today and everything is going great... But I always seems to be tired, is this normal? And recommendations?

I'm in Scottsdale, I was banded sept. 30, I chose to use WLIA.

Funny that you propose that question... I was banded three weeks ago and the last fee days I have wanted a glass of wine or champaign.

Yesterday, day five for me. I was a emotional mess. I sobbed for a couple of hours which is not like me, the last time I cried was over 10 years ago when my grandmother passed. This is an emotional roller coaster.... More of a mind game I'm starting to think. Us newbies just need to band together and support each other.

I was able to move to protein shakes, light cream soups,sg pudding on day 5. Day 8 I can move to puréed foods.

The liquid diet can be a challenge. I made sure with my broth that I could add different seasonings, and hot sauce... Something to mix it up. Also sugar free Popsicles really helped on the nights you want to eat solid food.

I was banded on Monday, I asked myself all the same things. How did I get to this point? How did I fail (failure is a hard pill for me to swallow). Now I focus on my new goal. I found that ensure clear was a great thing to drink during the clear phase. Hang in there and focus on the new you.

Thank you for the supportive words. I have been taking short walks, it is still warm in the afternoons here. I have also been spending time on Pinterest looking for new soup recipes since I will never be able to eat chicken broth again.

I'm a 6 days out and feel the the same way. I find. That occupying my time reading blogs ( as sick as this sounds my favorite is called 300 sandwiches, I focus in the story not the food) or finding new games to play on my iPad have helped. I also go and take walks around outside.
