I'm not doing well on stage 2 foods right now. I have only been able to drink a little Protein Shake and some Water most of the day. I have been stressed and devastated since Friday when I lost my mother during open heart surgery. I know she would yell at me for not trying to eat like I'm supposed to so I'm going to try to do better tomorrow.

Oh my I am so sorry for your loss. Keep moving forward! Your mother wouldn't want it any other way! God has a plan for us all. Your life is just beginning don't hault it! again I am very sorry.

Hi Amy,

Sorry to hear the passing of your mother, sadly we go through seasons of life but it will pass in time. However I admire your spirit that you will try again tomorrow. You can do this!

Amy,

I am so sorry for your loss. I know your mom is proud of you! Keep up the good work.

Amy I am sorry for your loss.

Don't know if any of you on here are also on Facebook. There is a closed group on facebook called BariBuddies that started from the people on this board if you'd like to join. It's a little easier to navigate. Look for the picture of the girl with the open arms.

I like staying in touch but this board seems hard to keep up with.

Oh Amy I'm so sorry. That is devastating. Will be keeping you close in my prayers... And yes please join our group if you would like.

Has anyone experienced the Hair loss? If you have, were you able to eat right? If you haven't, what were you doing? Just trying to make sure I keep most of mine. I barely have any anyway!

Yes, my hair is falling out. I'm at day 6. I am washing my hair very gently every other day and using Redkin Anti-snap. It is Protein for your hair. I gently comb it daily. It keeps the Hair loss at a minimum.

Woke up feeling great. Thought I would be able to get things done today. By noon I was gripping my tummy and I had only taken a nap. I hate when I get tricked like that. I mean I felt like me. The old me! I have lost 23 pounds in 2 weeks. 9 pounds since surgery. Really happy about this choice even with the pain.

@@Amy Carter I'm truly sorry for your loss. It's never easy losing someone so close. My prayers are with you and your family.

Try cream Soups. Me and Protein shakes have not been getting along either. They make me nauseous.

No hair loss at two weeks post opt. I don't know that I get enough Protein, but I take an awesome Multivitamin that is super packed with Biotin and some zinc, my surgeon said it will help with hair loss.

I had Hair loss prior to the surgery and of course it continues today. I take Biotin 5000 that I picked up from Walmart. I believe the bottle was around 7.00. I do have hair growing back in.

I'm officially on stage 3 foods!!!! I'm down 12 pounds since surgery. I'm happy and my doctor is very happy. I go back in a month instead of in 2 weeks like most of his patients. I think I'll try scrambled eggs for Breakfast.< /p>
