Does to much protein make you gain?
mel2643 replied to LadiWobs's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 3 1/2 months out and I consume 90 grams of protein a day , So I do not think you are overdoing it ... As far as hair loss ... I am currently going through it , started around a lil before my 3rd month ... It seems to be inevitable .... I take a bariatric multi vitamin , Biotin , Vitamin D and B12 ... however the hair loss is worrisome ... Per my surgeon it happens and it will grow back , Keep up the good work -

I have had no change in my marriage , I have been married 23 yrs and like you , we went out to dinner alot , However I am 2 1/2 months out and just because I eat less I do not let that stop me ... either I order an appitizer or just order a dinner and take most of it home .... However when we go out for drinks I will just order juice or a virgin something or other and babysit that puppy all night ...lol ... however we are still going strong .... Don't worry yourself too much with that ,.where there is a will there is a way -
Wow .... GREAT JOB , Congrats on your continued success .....
