Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

the two brands I like and continue to use are powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury and Syntrax. Unjury you can only get online (from Unjury). You can get Syntrax products either online directly from them or through retail outlets (Web or walk-in stores). BariatricPal Store sells it - so does Vitamin Shoppe. There are probably several other outlets as well. With both brands, you can get samples - and I would recommend that. There's nothing worse than buying a big tub of something that you hate. Protein is not cheap!!

My hair is thin enough without losing more. I may have to do a wig if it gets really bad. QVC here I come.

Unfortunately Hair loss is just par for the course. I'm 14 months post surgery. I started losing hair right around the 3 month mark. I lost quite a bit. My hair is about half as thick as it use to be. The good news is your hair will grow back. Mine has just started to. I have baby hair again at 32 years old lol!! Just hang in there and don't let the hair loss get you down.

Try collagen Protein Powder Dr. Axe... It's tasteless you can add to warm drinks and it has lots of benefits, one of them is hair and nails growth. I take it for my join pain but it helps my hair and nails as well.

I am pre-op, but have a few kinds of Protein that I like. Celebrate makes some great favors--chocolate mint and iced Decaf coffee are my favorite. I also love the Premier Protein ready made shakes--banana flavored is awesome!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
