Is anyone else freaking out about the hair loss factor? Or does anyone have any input or advice about their experience with how much hair loss they've had. I've heard horror stories and I'm kinda panicking. Also, I'm scared of the extra skin. I need to lose 80-90 lbs. I'm so scared I'm gonna be miserable after weight loss due to extra skin. Is there a good way to avoid a bunch of saggy skin? Any advice on either topic would be greatly appreciated!! [emoji53] [emoji53] [emoji53]

I've taken biotin religiously for a year. It's just habit now. I'm hoping it helps. I also make sure I take my multivitamin daily. I'm only getting about 60 grams of protein a day. And roughly 60 Oz of water a day... And that's a full time job right now. Lol. Thanks ladies.

April 12th. Can I get a link?

Maurices (online if there isn't one near you!!).

I had vertical sleeve. Surgery was April 12th (Tuesday) I went back to work Friday April 15th.

I had that head hunger SOOO bad... It made me angry. It does get easier. You have to find away to push through it. Because I'll tell you, it so bad with me I said "screw it, I can't do it" and I tried eating something (an egg of all things)... I chewed and chewed and chewed... And it was the worst pain almost immediately!!! Horrible. I learned my lesson!!! After trying to cheat, I completely ended my head hunger. I'm almost a month out and I'm still scared to ear anything... The pain was 10x's worse than surgery. It'll get better. Be head strong. Walk away from other when you see them eating. Try not to smell cooking food (that triggered my head hunger). It's tough, but I promise it goes away!! Stay strong. Lol

I have heard about every having liquids diets pre op. I had my surgery April 12. April 4th I started pre op diet... But it was not liquid. It was all solids very high protein. I am so confused why I didn't have to do the liquid diet. I had to buy the food from the hospital. Very specific food. But everything was a solid. Weird.
