My doctors scale is always different than mine. Don't be discouraged, go weigh in at the doctors office, or use yours as a starting point today and check again n a week :-). Good luck!

Where did you hear this?? My NUT has popcorn on approved list of foods? Just wondering?

Sounds like gas, walk, walk, walk. Sip, sip, sip, I will all pass :-)

Get rid of the junk in your house if you can't control yourself. Don't get me wrong, we all cheat, but within moderation. This is a lifestyle change and you have to learn to adapt to all foods and situations. You may want to talk to your shrink if you still are having major issues with eating, it maybe a larger issue than just the food. Good luck!!

I love popcorn, but get yourself an air popper, then you can control the butter, seasonings, etc :-)

I'm in, I may die, but its all for the greater good!!

Bariatric foodie has a website and she has all kinds of different recipes for different shakes. Check it out...I always find the colder the better, I never drink a protein shake unless it is blended with ice :-)

I am four 1/2 months out and I still can't eat bread!! Very small amounts, even pittas, wraps, etc. I end up picking all the protein out and toss the rest, I don't even bother anymore.

I am going thru the same thing....sorry! I take Biotin everyday and all my Vitamins, but it is still happening. I hate to say, I think this is normal.

I had surgery in Dec and I still have an issue with salad. Lettuce and me are not friends, I can have little amounts, but it really bothers my stomach. So I eat tomatos, cucumbers, peppers and carrots(carrots and I have a love hate relationship as well...lol) My doctor did not approve any salads till I was cleared for solids and even then said to go real slow. Good Luck!

A loss is a loss, could be 25 lbs gained . Hang in there, I would've been happy with your starting weight

Thank you everyone, I hated to sound vain, but this is my hair!! Freaks me out when I wash it, I try to go three full days before doing that but when you sweat at the gym it's not always an option :-). Thanks again!!!

Ok, so I knew losing my hair was a side effect of this surgery, but it is really happening to me! I may just lose my mind, I have taken Biotin from the day I had the surgery and I get 100-120 gms of Protein a day. Any other suggestions? I really can't lose my hair, I seriously will lose my mind. Thanks for any suggestions!

are you running? I would give yourself a break for a few days and make sure your sodium intake is down. Try lots of Water today to see if you can "flush" your system. If not I would get to a doctor, doesn't sound right. Good Luck

Three weeks!! Wow! I was on puree at 6 days out, follow up at five days and then I was able to start. Every doctor is so different!
