  4. 8 months post op, down 98 pounds. I get all my protein in ...always have and yes I'm still losing hair. They say it will grow back and I sure hope so. I lost a large amount a few years ago taking Topmax and it never came back after that. It's depressing....
  5. Mine showed up the morning of surgery. I let them know when I was asked to change. Got some lovely granny panties and a pad. My male dr laughed when I told him and said I was one of the extra lucky ones. lol No big deal at all to anyone.
  6. Hopefully you'll be like me and your migraines will go away for the most part. I could have 12 a month and now only 1 maybe 2 a month. My meds still work wonders for me. It took years to find the right one, but now usually within 30 minutes or so its gone. I take 40 mg of Relpax.

  13. GNC Pro Performance AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 chocolate with chocolate Fair Life milk and lots of ice is the only protein I like. I too have tried all you've listed plus many many more. My husbands a bodybuilder so the amount of protein we've had in this house is ridiculous.
  14. Reglan makes me have uncontrollable movement of my arms and legs. I get very agitated and cannot hold still. Thankfully only given to me once in the ER. lol Scary stuff!

  17. You sound just like me. That's exactly how I was having BM's. I'm 6 months out now and don't ever have that issue any more. I want to say it stopped for me about 3 months out.
  18. It's off for me. Started at 242 and now 6 months 2 weeks out and weigh 153. 89 pounds down.

  20. Surgery date October 12, 2015 Down 89 pounds at 6 months 3 pounds away from goal
  21. Almost 5 months since surgery. 242lbs in before pictures and 163 now. Down 79 pounds since October 12, 2015.
  22. We are following the same path.... HW 242 6/2015 SW 228 10/12/15 CW 198 12/10/2015 GW 135 I sat at 201 for two weeks and so badly wanted to see that 199 pop up on that scale!
  23. I started mine the morning of surgery. The nurse getting me all checked in and ready for surgery told me to put on the gown and take everything off. Before I could even say I started my period, she finished my sentence for me. She grabbed a pain of those lovely mesh underwear and a pad. She said I wouldn't believe how often that happens and no one thinks twice about it. My male surgeon laughed and said I was one of those lucky ones. Really not an issue at all and I wouldn't even think twice about it.
  24. I took that for migraines for about 6 months. I had a huge amount of hair loss and anxiety. Wish I never took it since it didn't help the migraines and the hair loss terrible.
