Hoping by this time next year I will reach my goals.Being 55 years old the weight takes longer to shed but it can be done. If your doubting getting this operation, don't. If I could do it anyone can. I even quit smoking. Wishing everyone a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

Go to low carb grocery store , can find it online. I stay away from some carbs because they are triggers. I buy some food from low carb. So I don't feel deprived. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

Outstanding! You look awesome! Congratulations. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

You look amazing. Biotin takes about 3 months before you notice a difference. Now having said that, I do not notice a difference. I have been taking biotin 2 years before surgery. Noticeable difference. Hair was strong and very shiny. Since the operation, RNY Nov. 1 2107- my hair started really falling out at the 4 month mark. Thankfully I already have thick hair but boy now I know how people feel with fine hair! It's supposed to improve again. Hopefully I am not bald by them.

Just keep drinking. I was pretty weak too. Dehydration will get you hospitalized pretty quickly. Nausea and dizziness can be caused by dehydration. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

It depends if you started at 400 lbs or 200 lbs. I started at 298, and I am losing approximately 3.5 lbs a week with about 3 stalls lasting up to 10 days. Rny- Nov 1 2017 HW: 298.5 Today: 224 Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

Congratulations, hope I too reach my goal which is 130pounds! You give me hope. Thank you. By the way you look fabulous [emoji4] Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app

It's not realistic thinking you will never have a dessert ever again. I think that sets us up for failure. I have low carb protein bars, plain yogurt with sugar free syrups in every flavor imaginabe, strawberries and blueberries. I found a low carb protein cake single serving at the Low Carb Store in Canada called Smart Cakes in different flavors. If your not prepared you will grab something that is not appropriate.Good luck on your weight loss journey. Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app
