Without disclosing too much personal medical information all I will say is would need to continue with mutiple invasive treatments over an extended period of time plus meds w/ a surgical procedure for an aux related issue or fix it all at one time with one procedure. Y'all know what I'm gonna choose, right? Yeah... Other than that it's a burden lifted to have relief within my grasp. Surgery is scheduled for 7/15 barring any complications/surprises I'm already approved by insurance and I'm really shocked/dismayed because it took them just 2 lousy days... I was hoping my case wasn't that serious and I was just being dramatic/hypochondriac. But that approval coming back so fast really has opened my eyes. I should have gone in for this consult sooner maybe? Saved my summer? Whatevs. Already in the dreaded 2 week preop diet. No. Words. Dante's unexplained layer of hell. Reserved for people who met goal but still need to shrink their livers 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 but enough whining. Here are lifestyle pics and pics of what I enjoyed while I could... Because liquids for quite a while *disclaimer: + I NEVER eat sauce + I 💚 Kale (fight me) +All Starbucks cups are homemade teas/protein shakes +I do smile more often but not usually without cause because I'm conscious of preventing wrinkles 😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝😝

🔼AGREED🔼 This is a Very common concern. In fact I just asked one of my new surgeons last night at a seminar (I'm being converted to RNY) about it because I wanted to get info again for everyone. He said he almost never see it with the patients of any of his various surgeries (VSG,RNY,DS &SIPS) who follow the protocol of the vitamins and protein strictly. He also said hes seen it (usually) occurs between 5-8 months post op and never beyond that if the patient is properly nourished. He recommended adding biotin as extra support. I did a bit of extra curricula research almost 2 years ago now during prep for VSG and came across med journals using LLysine (amino acid) as a supplement for halting hairloss. So I'm doing it, again... Talk to your team 💜

I'm currently loving popsicles sugar free

Definitely check in with your surgeon & try the changes you mentioned and let us know how it works out!!! You may help solve someone else's bariatric mystery

They usually refer to proteins, carbohydrates and fats

I'm unsure why I was tagged ... I sincerely hope I didn't offend anyone Besides I think I quit my proselytizing around the time when I started searching for a boyfriend 😂 Joking Joking Everyone do whatever y'all want, ask for help when you need (from pros first of course) I just come here for the food pics 😋

It was a dark and stormy night...

*Uncle Jessie Voice* Have Mercy... Since becoming a minimalism enthusiast i have whittled away at my collection of all accessories so now i live by the get one give one rule (or the Ghandi over Beyonce equation 😝) In fact i woke up today and did three loads of laundry to donate to the locate thrift shop. I'm also donating shoes I don't/never wear/wore. But i did just buy two new pairs of vegan (extremely hipster way of saying pleather) sandals that I have been wearing non stop and I 💜 them.

Halal salad (grilled chicken & lamb) before and after

I guess i have to commit now...

💜 Thank you all for the support, it is invaluable 💜

Thank you! 💜 I am surprised I have to do it again as well C'est la vie...
