Hey they said take a shower night before a shower the day of and wash your hair☹️ I have a lot of hair it's so thick and I can't braid plus I don't get perms I have natural pretty hair but it's so thick that I have to keep it done. I just don't want to wash it day of I was going to get it fixed in like some updo I can't do hair and I'm sure I'll be in too much pain to attempt to do anything with it. I have a lot of hair I must stress. Lol

Double check with your surgeon to make sure you HAVE to wash it. I feel you on this topic. I was going to put my hair in boxer braids so I didn't have to bother with it post op (and so it would still look cute LOL) my pre-op instructions don't say anything about washing my hair.

My pre op instructions from the hospital said wash your hair but I would have to do it the day before it's too cold in a hospital to have wet hair and I can't dry it on my own too much hair I just want two braids.

I went to Walmart today & purchased meltable vitamins each bottle was a 130ct @ $5.97 ea. I got multvitamin, D3, B12, hair Skin Nail, the Calcium was $14. I work at Grocery Dist Company inside a well known convenience store chain & we get lots of vendor samples. Quest is one of my vendors so I'm stocked up on those. I also got to try Premier Protein shakes & love them no nasty Vitamin smell. They are 30 grams protein.

I started taking the vitamins in non chewables now so my body would get used to it & I would be set after surgery. My Nutritionist said that it was a good plan. I'm taking Biotin because I have hypothyroid & it helps with Hair loss. I like to be prepared.

@@MizTX525 thank you so much for the info...... I need to stock up on some of this thing...

I reseached & researched because some bariatric websites are a bit expensive on their supplements. A few of my colleagues had bariatric surgery & told me what they used & it helped save me some money.

I was told gummies are not great because they lack in what you truly need so I passed on them plus I was afraid they wouldn't go down easy.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
