Crackers and bread would be the last things I would be eating at your stage. Protein first is the rule. To me, that stuff fills you up way too fast so you can't get in enough protein and then slides through so you're looking for food again too soon.

You also need to determine if you're HUNGRY or if you just want to eat. They are two different things and hungry feels different after surgery. I am rarely actually hungry. I know I need to eat when I have that EMPTY, almost painfully empty feeling, I get lightheaded or I get nauseous.

Chili is a good option, though it will take you a few meals to get through a serving, even a small is huge for us.

Just know that if it is made of meat or dairy you can pretty much eat it and try to work in a green veggie or some fruit if you can tolerate it, now and then.

I would definitely call your doc's office back and reschedule an earlier appointment, but is it your DOC that you need to see, or your Nutritionist or even a nurse?

You are doing great so far, stay on the yellow brick road because eventually the sleeve won't be doing the majority of the work and it'll just be you and if you're still depending on a lot of carbs, that willl slow you down.

It's common to experience hair loss 3-5 months post-op. It's most likely due to the trauma of the surgery and a lack of protein immediately following surgery. Hair loss now is the result of evens 3 months ago, so there is not much action you can take now that will have any immediate effect. If you've been good about protein intake post-op, it should taper off on its own fairly quickly.
