Dry dry skin :(



Recommended Posts

I'm about 7 months post and my face is progressively getting drier and drier. To the point that I'm putting aquaphore on my face at night, which is pretty gross. Most days I make the 64 oz Water goal but not 100%. Is anyone else having this issue? It sure doesn't help the wrinkles I'm getting on my neck and face from fat loss.

I rub coco butter over my body after I shower! It helps

I havent had surgery yet but my face gets super dry. I put coconut oil on my skin at night before bed. It has helped tremendously.

I'll have to try coconut oil tonight. It's getting ridiculous.

Have you tried adding an oily supplement? Fish oil or evening primrose oil? I find that helps. Also add a face oil to your evening routine. Coconut oil left on overnight might not be great for pores in the long term. Great for getting makeup off though.

I was reading about that last night. Ordered some orange fish oil packets on Amazon today. I'm really hoping it helps. My husband and I noticed reddish dry spots on my neck today.

I am 3 weeks post op and my skin is ridiculously dry already. I will be adding some fish oil capsules in a week or two.

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

      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! 😞
