Protein Powders Drinks etc Aussies only
aussieamy replied to mini.mee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yes definitely helps reduce hair loss. I ran out of my Protein powder and just didn't get around to getting more.... My hair loss got so bad since that I have now chopped all my hair off because it was so thin and gross. Have started back on the protein and have learnt a valuable lesson! -

Hi Amy, I bought it from my local health food shop. Cost me $50 for a 3kg bag and it lasted about 3 months (using a scoop and a half a day). -
How soon did you go back to work?
aussieamy replied to Kennedy310's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had surgery on Thursday, discharged Saturday and back at work Wednesday. But I was bored brainless by Monday and was sooooo tempted to go back to my desk job. I was in absolutely no pain and since I'm allergic to pain meds, couldn't have taken them anyway!! It seems like everyone is very, very different. So possibly not much help!! -
The Importance of Vitamin Supplementation!
aussieamy replied to cookie2012's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hey cookie, I am terrible with my multi Vitamins... The Swisse ones my dietician recommended are so big and foul-smelling I can't get them down. I was tempted to take the kids chewable ones because I thought something was better than nothing. Has anyone found any multi-vitamins that are ok smelling? -

Hi everyone!! Starting weight on day of surgery: 106kg Todays weight: 77kg Goal weight: 67kg I was sleeved 6th September '12 so just over 4 months ago. So pleased with my results. I've got no excess skin at all - just need to tone up my muscles. -

aussieamy replied to mini.mee's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi all, I bought Boomers whey isolate (which is flavourless) and then I just use my baby bullet to make my own smoothie. Can't taste the Protein when I make it. Delicious and super quick!! Banana, malted milk, skim milk and some honey. I can't stand the flavoured protein powders... They are so overly fake tasting!
