True, this too shall pass !

Did you take biotin? Did it help ?

I had surgery March 16 and I am down 55 lbs ???????? !! My hair started coming out about a month ago so I'm just wondering how long this is going to last ? It's really bad ????????

Vodka and lemonade ????sounds yummy .. I may have to try that I am not a big drinker but something about summertime lol... I just don't want to cause a major problem by doing so

I know we have been told not to drink. Just curious if an occasional beer or mixed drink will cause damage to your sleeve. I am able to drink a beer slowly , just wondering why I shouldn't other than the empty calories????

I'm 3 weeks today and I am in the same boat as you ????not losing ... I would like some advice/ answers as well

Premier protein premixed drinks are my favorite . I couldn't do the powder.

I will have to try making my own ???? If you haven't tried the powder there is NOOOO need to start lol

Thank you all ????

Thank you ????I have tried those before my surgery and they are good . This powder is NASTY !!

I am 1 week post op today and I am trying so hard to get my protein in. I am having a hard time .. They taste terrible. Can anyone recommend a brand/flavor ? Also, what were (if any) provisions for premade protein drinks like premier protein, Special K , lite and fit ? Were they permitted ?

Thank you ! I guess I wasn't expecting to be this sore and i definitely wasn't expecting to be full from 2 sips of water.

I can't even eat a whole cup of jello without feeling like I am going to pop. Drinking water is hard too. 2 sips is all I can handle at a time . I am also very sore . How long until the soreness is gone ?

My surgery is in the morning !! Nervous is an understatement. I pray all goes well tomorrow for those of us having surgery!

Thanks for the encouraging words ????????I appreciate them

You have a point .. Hair will grow back ????.

My surgery is Monday March 16 and I must say that I am getting nervous but excited at the same time. My major concern is losing my hair. I've heard that can happen . Any suggestions on how to prevent this from happening?

Has anyone used dr balder as their surgeon? He is based out of Gulfport, ms... I have seen him twice in his hattiesburg office. He does his surgeries in slidell at a Coe facility. I am waiting on insurance approval and would like to hear from anyone that has used him for gastric sleeve.

I just finished my 6 months with active health now waiting for approval. Getting nervous!
