    I'm almost a year post op and my daughter, who is 15 and has autism, never said a word about my weight loss until recently. We were in the car and she asked me how come I was skinny now. And I reminded her about my surgery then she says, "mom, I liked it better when you were original" Just thought it was funny the way she said it.

  15. 3 months Post Op .... Hair Loss

    hissunshine80 replied to CantStopMeNow's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
    My hair started to fall out at 3 months post op. I lost hair for a full 6 months. I'm 9 month post op now and it finally stopped. I tried everything. Got in all my protein, took biotin, and tried the nioxin hair treatment but nothing helped. I lost at least half of my volume of hair and it looked terrible. So yesterday I went and got it all cut off. The day of surgery my hair was down to my butt and now it's up to my ears but I love it and it looks healthier. Before surgery you know there is a chance it can happen but when it happens to you it can be alarming and depressing but I just had to remind myself often that it's temporary. So that's my experience with hair loss. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using BariatricPal mobile app

    hissunshine80 replied to 3boysmama's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
    I found this at Wal-Mart. It's much cheaper than the chews. Easy to get down and it's only one tablespoon 3 times a day for 1500 mg. The chews taste better but it's not bad just strong orange flavor. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using BariatricPal mobile app

  18. Menstrual Cycles Changes After VSG?

    hissunshine80 replied to HeatherK_VSG's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Hi! I was sleeved on March 13th and I have also lost 27 pounds so far. I have had PCOS since my teenage years and have never had a cycle naturally. I took metformin for years and that helped regulate my cycles. It also helped me get pregnant. Although that was 14 years ago. I was taken off metformin 2 weeks before my surgery day and one month after surgery I had a cycle on my own. First time ever. And I'm 41 years old. So there is hope it will happen for you too.

  20. Unjury protein

    hissunshine80 replied to Joann454's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    The soup is my favorite too. I use a thermometer and heat my water to 140 and it comes out just right. Any hotter it will change the texture and be clumpy. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using BariatricPal mobile app
