I started losing hair about two weekday ago. Ugh...there wasn't a lot there to start with & its frustrating, but I look & feel so good that I don't care as much. We'll see how I feel about it in a few months!

Thanks ladies!

Does anyone know if its ok to have flax seeds at around 6 months out? I don't have a NUT to ask!

Haven't Lost Weight My First Week..
Sunshine Girl replied to jaymzee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I went to the hospital after my surgery & one of the nurses said that when out bodies go into shock it holds on to weight b/c it thinks its dieing! Be patient. You'll be clothes falling off thin soon! -
I have had vision changes for sure & have read that it is a temporary problem with dramatic weight loss. It will correct itself, just like all the other shocks to our bodies...this is just one of thema

Trouble With Eggs Post-Op?
Sunshine Girl replied to Bubbaloo10's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I couldn't tolerate eggs either. I'm 3 months out & I tried them in the mushy stage & I felt so bad that I never tried them again. -
Awesome Pumpkin Protein Bars
Sunshine Girl replied to TheNewSusie's topic in Vegetarian, vegan, raw foods
Love this. Will be trying soon. I made lo-carb crepes last night. Whoa, buddy. Also made them for the family & put jelly on top of theirs! My son said, "Mom, these are as good as IHOP!" Guess he couldn't tell they were healthy! -
Try 1st choice for energy liquid vitamins. I have had tons of luck with it. It foes make me flush for about 5 minutes when I get to the bottom of the bottle, probably b/c I'm not shaking it good enough! I found it cheapest on Walgreen's website

My husband, very reluctantly, started joining me in yoga each morning b/c he wants to improve his ride (cycle) quality. At first we couldn't make it through a workout together b/c I would end up on the floor laughing so hard I had to hold myself, but eventually he got it. Hrs not great at it & by no means looks graceful, BUT be can tell a difference in his ride. He doesn't fall as much. Also, if you can get your hands on a copy of AB-ripper X (the P90X core video) that is a great ab workout & its just 15 minutes. Try ordering a 10-minute solution yoga video at home to avoid embarrassment! Start with one 10-minute section then add on each week. You'll see a difference within a week. Make sure you really listen to the cues that the instructor is giving b/c we've conditioned our bodies to slouch or stand incorrectly, so try to do exactly what she is saying & watch her moves at first. You cab do this. Yoga is super beneficial!

Wow! Sounds amazing.

This is such a good question. I have been sleeved for 6 weeks, so I know what a slider is, but have no idea where they go?

I've noticed that a lot of people post about hair loss. Is this something that happens to everyone or just some people? Is there anything I can do to prevent it? I've already got really thin hair, can't imagine losing any!

I feel like an absolute mess right now. I think its due to my grief over food. I was/am completely addicted to food & now that I can't have it like I used to, I feel insane. Hoping it will pass soon. I'm 5 weeks out.
