    April Sleevers Losing Hair?

    Oh my I was sleeved on 4/10 and my hair is falling out like crazy! I already take biotin. Anything else you guys can suggest?
  2. It's mainly because of the anesthesia in your system and any pain meds. I think I drove after like a week.

    Moms With Young Children....

    You should be fine. We played a lot outside. If I needed to take a nap I would set them up with toys or put on the tv and made them stay in the same room with me. Good luck!!!

    Drinking Straws

    It depends on your surgeon. I have been drinking out of a straw since week 3. It helps me get my fluids in : )

    Comparison

    I had c-sections and the sleeve. The sleeve was nothing compaired to the csections. Not bad at all : )

    Will I Ever Enjoy Eating Again?

    Maybe I'm going to be the odd one out here but I still love food. I'm 10 weeks. Not at first of course because how exciting can chicken broth be. I enjoy the little i get and those few bites are nice. Im excited i dont eat like a truckdriver anymore. Im one happy camper with a sugar free fudgesicle too!!!
  7. I'm 10 weeks out and I eat salad all the time. I just make sure it has lots of high protein stuff on it. Yummy!!!

    Craving

    I had Chinese the other day. I had shrimp and broccoli and gave my egg roll and rice away. I asked them to sautée with less oil. I also have hamburgers without the bun. I usually split it with one of my kids who don't eat a whole hamburger anyway. Works out good. I put ketchup, mustard, lettuce, tomatoe, and pickle. It's super yummy and your getting your protein : ) I'm 9 weeks out and if it's to dry I can't eat it. So I use ketchup. I'm not using a cup of it or anything but enough to moisten it up since I use a leaner cut of hamburger. This tool has been given to me and i love it. I cant eat like a truck driver but i do still enjoy foods. I love my sleeve. I have tried everything but dont eat breads or pasta or rice. I have tried them to see if i can. Nothing bothers me to much. I unfortuatly dont dump either. So i choose not to have those things either. I have lost almost 71 lbs since surgery 9 weeks ago so I must be doing semi ok : )
  9. I stop when I feel that pressure which is about 3 oz. it depends on what it is. I hate to slime or puke so make sure I don't get past that pressure feeling : )

    Coffee

    Doctor told me I could have 1 cup daily so I have been drinking it since surgery. Nothing in it of course at first. Just make sure you drink extra water.

    Sounds like the symptoms of low blood sugar but your eating so I don't know. You need to tell your doc though.
