For how long does your hair fall out for ?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I have the same questions. I had my rny on 1/31. I have PCOS and diabetes as well. I'll be 39 in June, so hopefully next year before my 40th, I can start trying. I'll be pass the 1 yr mark. Loving Me

Good reminder @Lema

Most of us have trouble drinking water post op. Some say it has to do with the ph. For a few months it's best to flavor it. Get some crystal light powder or ice tea. It doesn't have to be much but it really helps so you can meet your fluid goals. It does get easier. I think I was around 3 months when I could easily drink a bottle like I could precisely surgery, although I still at 6 months prefer to flavor it. Sent from my SM-N910T using BariatricPal mobile app

I have gained almost 20 lbs and I'm not happy about it. Today I started the Bariatric Eating reset pouch and I have been doing okay so far today. I hope it works out for you.

Sooo Im at like 7 months right now... I'm at a weight that's very comfortable for me so if I can slow my weight loss to about 5 lbs a month I'd be satisfied!!! My goal was 140--- Now I feel like 160 might be it for me... I'm 167 currently. I'm not concerned about slow weight loss. SO... I keep my routine going. I don't count calories AT ALL!!!!!! I'm more focused on food groups. I still have something light for breakfast- a fruit and veggie smoothie, or a Protein shake, or fruit and yogurt or Breakfast meat but I eat something preferably something with protein but sometimes I just want a smoothie. Grazing is life!!!!!! I bring or purchase a grazebox at work so my Snacks are already ready to go. My grazebox usually contains 4 items it could be 8 cheese cubes, 10 cucumber slices , 15 grapes, and 1/4 cup of mixed nuts (cashews, almonds, pecans, peanuts) Its in a divided container so it fits perfectly. I have other combinations like cheese, apple slices, hummus and celery, or Nuts, pineapple, carrots and strawberries. Anyways I graze on this ALL DAY at work starting at about noon. My lunch is usually 1 item. Today it was 4 lemon pepper wing dings, Tomorrow it might be a mini garden salad with grilled chicken. It might be a leftover baked porkchop or lobstertail from last nights dinner. By 3 oclock I'm back snacking on my grazebox and I usually still have food left over by the end of the day. I take it home and add it to my grazebox for the next day. Sometimes I can easily skip lunch because the grazebox keeps me satisfied. Its all about what you are grazing on. I usually leave work about 430-5pm I have to pick kids up and stop by the store sometimes I snack on what remains of the grazebox or whatever was left from lunch but I don't typically eat after 6pm and I'm not hungry. Now 1-2 times per week I may eat out with the family, or join a friend for drinks but that is the only instance where I may really eat past 6 or 7pm. Sometimes I might just purchase food eat a few bites of salad and carryout the rest. Find what works for you... I personally see nothing wrong with grazing. Just watch the carbs and make sure your activity levels are where they should be. You know what that is... what works for you may not work for me and vice versa. I was going to the gym 4-5 days a week but I wasn't pushing myself so I started taking kickboxing classes, boot camp and classes that would push me to my physical limits.

I lost 20 pounds the first month after my surgery. BUT...as anyone here on the BP forum will tell you, everyone is different. There's no magic number, no 'typical' weight loss the first month.

you may have pulled a muscle. you did not mention if you have started exercising. sometimes with the lack of activity our muscles are weak and when we start exercising they are easily damaged temp. also be sure you are getting your protein ( for your muscles) and taking all your vitamins. good luck to you
