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.

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.

      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?
