  1. I think pea protein tastes so bad! I'm already 10 months out and 20 pounds under my goal weight. I developed all these health problems about 6 months in. I'm not getting in even 1/2 of the protein I need. I use hemp protein, but it needs additions to have tolerable taste and only has 12gr of protein. I'm still having a hard time getting much in and the dairy soy restrictions are mega complicators...
  2. Hi y'all! I'm struggling with getting even a full 30mg of protein in because I can't have any dairy. I'm paying a big price extreme hair loss, muscle loss, weakness... Does anyone have a similar experience and/or some advice? Thanks much!!! Dina
  3. My trouble is that I am very allergic to dairy, so I can't manage to get enough protein. Anyone have this experience?
  4. Please do let me know....I'm still interested in how you gals are getting in 100mg, protein powder?
  5. Whoa! That's a ton of protein! How did you get it in?
  6. Thank you so much all for the responses and suggestions. I appreciate it a lot. I'll try them and look forward to hair loss stopping soon. Xo Dina
  7. 60-80 grams. I had trouble keeping it down early on, but at this point--I don't know why it won't stop. I run my hair through my hair at any given time (without pressure) and a handful of hair stays behind. I don't know how to get it to stop.
  8. Hi all, I had WLS/ vertical sleeve this past September. Four months later, in January, my hair began to shed. I knew that this happens, so I tried to just stick it out and not focus on it. It's now 7 months since the shedding began and my hair is coming out with a vengeance. I went from a big healthy head of hair to very thin hair with actual completely bare spots. I cut it short, take Vitamins, try to eat very well, but no improvement. Has anyone had this experience? Can anyone offer any advice? I don't know what to do. Would appreciate some input. Thanks!!! Dina
