Vitamin deficiency please help
OutdoorsGirl replied to PennyIris's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
My ferritin was high too. If you can donate blood, it will bring it down. -

I take the Procare multi one a day iron free. I take it after a meal otherwise I feel ill. -
I take my multi vitamin after meal. Otherwise I feel ill. They all make me feel ill on an empty stomach. I take the Procare 1 a day without iron.

Vitamins or supplements for nausea
OutdoorsGirl replied to Rose perez's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I can only take them after a meal. -
Try isopure unflavored no carb. I purchased it at Harris teeter grocery store. It doesn’t add a flavor. 25g protein a scoop.

I like the dinner mint ones from pro care health. Ask them to send you samples to see if they will work for you. -
Hair Shedding & Hair Loss
OutdoorsGirl replied to greekgoddess2468's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The hair loss was scary. I can now see 3 inches of new hair growth. My surgery was in 11/2021. My hair was everywhere. I was afraid it wasn’t going to grow back. I took plenty of vitamins. I don’t think you can do anything to stop it, so save your money and take your regular Bariatric vitamins. -
As it gets warmer, I’ve been dropping my winter clothes and coats into a bag and putting them into a donation bin. I’ve bought a few new items from target. Target is pretty affordable for casual clothes. My t shirts from last summer are loose, but I can still wear them.

Favorite salad (from chain restaurant)

There’s a tropical smoothie near me. I’m going to check it out. I didn’t know they had food too. -
Favorite salad (from chain restaurant)
OutdoorsGirl replied to ShoppGirl's topic in Food and Nutrition
The pollo asado is chicken with garlic, lime, peppers and cilantro. I had it on a taco one day. You can order 1 taco at my chipotle it was only $3.50 for my meal - a bargain for chipotle. When I get the bowl, I can get 3 meals out of it, so I guess that’s a bargain too. -

I like Panera for salads and the bowls from chipotle. The pollo asado that chipotle has out now is yummy. The salads at Chick-fil-A are pretty good too. -
I ate 1 pollo asado crispy taco from chipotle today. It was pretty tasty. At $3.50, it was a bargain. I like when places have menu items that aren’t huge and are reasonably priced. It kept me full until dinner.

I think the stress test will show if you had one or not. After my test, the dr said that I have not had a heart attack in the past.

November Surgery Buddies!!!
OutdoorsGirl replied to Tristenhilpert97's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had surgery on 11/9. I can eat about a cup of food. My meds slow down my metabolism, so I’ve only lost 47 lbs so far. I’ve checked goodwill for clothes, but didn’t have any luck. I’m buying stretchy pants so they will last through a few sizes. Good job losing November surgery friends! -
My ekg was abnormal and I was able to have surgery. I did end up in the hospital for a week though.

Skechers are affordable and pretty comfortable. I wear hoka one one Clifford’s but they are pricey.

ONE-DERLAND!
OutdoorsGirl replied to GummyBearQueen's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How exciting! Congrats! -
I’ve had mid to upper back pain and thigh numbness ever since my surgery 3.5 months ago. I haven’t been taking anything for it, but it is annoying. Im seeing a neurologist about it in a couple of weeks.

Normal Bites?
OutdoorsGirl replied to heddenturner's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
By 3 months I was taking pretty normal bites of the things that I eat. I try to remember to chew more and eat slowly. I was surprised by how fast I was able to do so. -
1 week post op and I feel amazing!!
OutdoorsGirl replied to blackluxury82's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I started, I was in a 3X at 280. Now I can fit into a 1X at 248. I’ve only purchased 2 pairs of stretchy pants and 1 pair of dress pants. I’m still wearing my 3X tops. I’ll need to buy some shorts and probably smaller tops for the summer. I’m just going to buy a few things until my size stabilizes so I don’t waste a lot of money. I checked out the thrift store, but didn’t see anything that I would want. -
