My doc told me If I get a minimum of 60g of protein in a day and take my daily vitamin regimen, that I won’t experience hair loss. Is this true??

When did you have your sleeve done? I physically can’t eat 60g of protein at a minimum unless I eat all at long. I still need my protein shakes.

How much are you down? I’ve been at a stall for 2 weeks. I’m doing everything right, and it’s pissing me off!! Getting 10k-12k steps a day too!! HW-256 SW 242 CW219. Sleeved 3/8

I’m only a month out, however my doctor said that if I get 60 grams of protein and take my vitamins I won’t have much hair loss. I see that everyone’s vitamin regimen is different. I take... 2 flinestones a day. 500 b12 Iron 325mg Calcium plus vitamin d 600&800 twice a day Vitamin c 500 Biotin 5000

Looking to meet up in Pittsburgh?

Anyone from Pittsburgh?

When could you guys eat lettuce? I’m 4 weeks post op and want a salad!

How much are you eating at a time?

Yes. She said it was most likely from dehydration. I had no protein when I went to my pcp

I will be 3 weeks post op on Thursday. Anytime I eat anything I can literally feel it go into my stomach. Like it’s a tight squeeze getting through. It’s not painful..... but it is uncomfortable. Will it be like this for the rest of my life, or will this feeling eventually go away? It’s so annoying!!

So I’m 18 days post op, and haven’t lost weight in a week. I’m eating 1/4 cup of cottage cheese, 2 protein shakes a day and getting 64 oz ow liquids in a day. Is this common???

Protein shakes are too sweet. I loved them the first week and hate them now. I bought Genepro and can mix it in anything, however after researching online, it says there was a lawsuit in which they lost because of their false labeling of calories and protein amount. Does anyone else use this? The info I found wasn’t from credible sources, so I don’t want to not use it. Has anyone used this and see their protein levels tank??

It pushes your food through your “new” stomach much faster and puts you at risk for dumping syndrome. I took my chances one time and regret it. Dumping is NO JOKE

Yes. I’m drinking close to 70 a day. My spec grav was normal. I sent a message to my doc.

I’m 16 days post op. Had my surgery 3/8. I randomly dipped my urine to make sure I was hydrated, and I had protein in my urine. Is this normal? I know it’s expected to have high ketones, but wasn’t sure if protein was expected, as well. I’ve been a nurse , but work with children and I don’t know much about adults.
