I am 60 years old and weigh about 80 lbs more than I 2 ant to. I had trouble with my band sliding so we my do and I to have me do the bypass revision. I am doing good no problem getting enough protein or water, see the Dr Monday for 1 week check up. Little worried about hair loss. Anyone got ideas to prevent it

Sorry got interrupted ed before I got to

Had bypass on 29 sept. 1 month out but I am getting tired of eating lunch meat veggies and getting enough protein with

Some told me a way to put flavor you take two teaspoons or tablespoons of sugar free jello powder you know before you make it. It adds great flavor and it's sugar free. Just an idea

All. I am on day one of pre surgery diet and have to go to bathroom all the time. Has anyone else had this problem?

You should be getting at least 50-60 from food and shakes.

You can put flavor in it just watch the sugar amounts. I drank vanilla protein shakes but I made it thru it. I am still drinking protein shakes 2 now until I eat enough protein . Just drink lots I am having trouble getting enough liquids. I am making sure today though pushing it thru. I am 17 days out and one thing I am working on is getting stamina back seem to get tired easy, I use to go forever hope once I go back to work it comes back fast. I will never be sorry I did this I feel better.

I don't know about garlic but I am eating deli chicken and turkey, wrapped in cheese and I dab it in mustard, that helps a lot to be able to taste food. Makes it easier not to get board.

Hi all am down about 20 lbs from my 242 two weeks before surgery I am having trouble getting enough fluids down when it's warm out no problem but now it's cool and I am just not as thirsty now it's cool and suggestions.

How are you doing ? I had surgery came out find Except I am allergic to the clear bandages they put on to cover the stitches got that healing up but I am having trouble getting my strength back, out doing errands and two hours I am really pooped, hopefully I will get better I an going back to work on the 20th of Oct need the money. Starting to ride my stationary bike need to build up my strength. Hope you all are doing well. Let me know how all are.

I am allergic also the welts are just going away yesterday is the first I have not had to use Meds on all the welts, that is two weeks.

Hi survived surgery just having issues need to taste something tired of your art cottage cheese need some flavor, but Dr said no so I will be good.

Sorry my fingers got messed up bur I think a positive group would be great!

I like the idea of a healthy granny group. That close to the reasons I want to be healthy and line ling. My grandson ins 14 I plan on dancing at his wedding and seeing my great grand child.

I am 5 days out so far so good had two days of taking pain Meds because I needed them. I take at night to get in a comfortable position the worst part is I am board, my husband is going to help me did out criss stitch items to work on sat. I got to eat cream soup 2 test and it pretty much filled me up. Worse part is stitches are healing and they itch hopefully I won't scratch in my sleep. Any one there wants to talk I am hear

I hurt today but every day is better

Three days out of surgery, only problem is swollen stomach it's itching that's good it is healing. Slept thru the night happy about that.

I just use billion cubes, beef chicken it seems more like dinner

Good luck on yours keep in touch and let's see hoe each other are doing

Just saw on the news that weight loss surgery helps a person have less of chance of getting well I can't spell it right but the disease where you lose your memory It runs in my family I need all the help I can get avoiding it

I had a lap done in 2002 I am getting gastric by pass monday, kept getting hernias I did good on band lost 130 lbs gained back half of what I lost si ready to be healthy again.

Hi you said you had the surgery but remember it's a tool, you still have to exercise and watch what you eat. I realize it is a life time change. I an excited to start

I am having surgery on the 39th, this is day four. No having any problems. Can't wait to get this process over, and get life back too somewhat normal.

About the extra skin when I lost 130 on my band I was able to have extra skin removed as I seem to have a rash on the skin that hung the same with my boobs I got the sink removed from my stomach insurance paid for it was going to have books done when I found out I had cancer-no related to the weight loss surgery. Lost 130 on the band found it slipped and I have a big hernia. So with the bypass he is going to fix hernia I am hopping to lose another 85 lbs. I have gained about 65 back. My goal with the combo of surgeries win be from 310 to 150-160. Now
