nakole73 replied to smyleetn's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

I'm a little concerned. I had my 3 month post op on 11/22. I ran out of Vitamins and supplements about 2 weeks ago. All of my levels were normal except my B12 and parathyroid, which were high. Anyone else experience this? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I started losing my hair at 2 months post op, I'm 3 months post op now and still losing it. Luckily I had thick hair to begin with. I just hope I stop losing it before I have to resort to extensions.

nakole73 replied to nakole73's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you. I'm not sure what I expected. I also have a bad habit of weighing myself right before I go to bed and first thing in the morning. I may need to throw out my scale. -

My husband doesn't know my weight...at all
nakole73 replied to creatingthenewme's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My husband is 6'2" and weighs maybe 175 pounds, maybe less. I'm 5'4" and weighed 282 on my surgery date which was 08/10/2016, I'm only down to 232 right now, but I have never told him my weight either. I may tell him after I get back down to 160 or so. -
I had Ketosis for the first month post op. The Doctors never forewarned me. It was terrible, no matter how many times I brushed my teeth and tongue or how much mouthwash I used. I'm glad it's over now. I was sleeved 8/10/16 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
