  1. Hi I am a 10 days post op and am having a few concerns. Everyone has been taking about sip sip sip but I have no problem taking full sips should this worry me? Also I have been walking as much as possible around the block, but I keep getting extremely sore shoulders when I walk. Does anyone know why?

  5. Hi I am preop surgery for band to bypass on 8/24. I have read a lot about hair loss and that Nioxin was great for regrowth However after researching it appears they recently changed the Nioxin formula and it's no good anymore. Any other tips to preventing hair loss or at the very least assisting with regrowth? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
