Hi

My hair is falling so much I don't know what to do any help

Unfiortunately, it is common and tough to avoid I understand. But there are some things you can try to do to try to minimize it or help it grow back a bit faster.

How's your daily Protein intake? Are you taking Vitamins?

Recommend adding Biotin and zinc to Vitamin regimen.

Sleeved may 29th and have lost 57 pounds. Loving my sleeve. Eating a fairly normal diet now just no flour based products and rarely make it over 800 calories a day. Start weight 135.5 kilos, current weight 109.3 kilos.

Life is good.

Wearing a size 16 skirt today.

A good tip I picked up from a vsg member in my hospital support group is to eat a wee little bit every two hours or so - I have weeks where I have the hungry rumblies in the little sleeve - this really helps - babybel cheeses do wonders lol.

My surgery was 5/21 but I count my 8 weeks on Saturday which I will do on the 21st of every month.

HW: 318

SW: 274

CW: 238

Down 36 since surgery - lost 44 pre-surgery. But this info is always in my sig :)

Great job May sleevers!

I am 8 weeks today and down 20 lbs... Was down 23 lbs and gained 3 lbs back. Plus 15 of those lbs were in the first 3 weeks prior to my first stall. I make my Water and Protein goals 90% of the time. I am trying my best to not to get discouraged. Will the weight eventually move faster or will it always be this slow??

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
