Got the results back on my Vitamins they are all normal so I'm hoping mine won't be that bad. I've come to terms that there is nothing I can do but deal with it and hope it will pass quickly

Not sure of the correct dosage of fish oil but reading an article on 3 fat chicks it takes about a month for real noticeable results

Linda have you tried taking fish oil for your brittle hair?

Are y'all still taking PPI daily ?

Yea !! Thats Great news !

I drink sf tea or peach tea those are my favorite. I like the Walmart name brand

Mine has started coming out today also . I am 3 months and 1 week post surgery . I bought hair extensions clip in,Months ago but it takes time to put them in. I also purchased toppik products and started them today ! I hope it only last 90 days like most others ! ;( if your hair tangles like mine does , toppik conditioner doesn't untangle as well as other conditioner . Anyway as you cry about your hair loss I will be crying with you about mine

Sounds like you need to go to church Sunday lol

How do you get to the recipe board on this site?

Blade fox the only time I enjoyed my treadmill was when I had a tv in front of it and a tape of a walking trail on a natural florida walking trail.

I like the imitation crab meat with a little lite ranch dressing . I buy the shredded kind at Walmart it's only 2.50 . I eat a lot of that along with tuna fish or chicken salad. To keep from eating too many crackers I just crumble one in top just before eating for that extra crunch. I'm 3 months out.. Seems like I have an egg and Greek 100 cal yoplait yogurt . Premiere shake every day.

PPI keeps your stomach from producing acid that could eat through your staples in your stomach.

Has anyone tried these ?

Go to SAMs club and get premiere shakes chocolate and strawberry or Walmart has a 4 pack if u want to sample . They run about 1.50 each but it's cheaper then a hamburger ! And taste really good . They were 4$!0ff a box but sale ends today I think

What's another choice for biotin, it breaks my face out? ( hair growth )

I'm down 11 points on my BMI woo hoo I'm also 2 points away from being in the 100's on the scale ... Just had to pat myself on the back !

I also hurt it was like stabbing pains they where short and sharp!! They finally stopped around 8/9 weeks out. I think it was the skin growing over my stitches or my wound heeling from the inside.

Had the same issue . I made the comment to her that wasn't hungry that day. I was only 6 weeks put at time . Then I chose to go to a place that had soup and loaded potatoes . She doesn't know I had the sleeve

Also boiled eggs if can refrigerate them

Maybe pack some protein bars, turkey jerky bites, and if you have a cooler tote put some cheese snacks or the Oscar myer protein packs with almonds, meat, and cheese .

This post is for those people who are in the very early stages of gastric sleeve and are wondering what they can eat on atypical day at 3 months. My day: Breakfast 100 calorie Greek yogurt vanilla 1/4 fresh sliced peach mixed together 20 ml sugar free tea lunch baked chicken leg, 4 green Beans My 3 gummy Vitamins for desert 20 ml sugar free Hawaiian punch Snack 1/2 premiere strawberry shake ( yummy) 1/4 c cottage cheese dinner Protein snack pack ( cheese, almonds, diced ham) Snack 1/2 of strawberry Protein Shake 2 chocolate Calcium chews Yogurt is a slider for me, my go to snack is boiled eggs, turkey Jerky bites, Oscar Myers protein snack pack and imitation crab meatIt doesn't take but about 4 bites to fill me up. I have more head hunger then actual hunger. It's worse when I watch tv and see all of the food commercials . I keep a drawer of high protein Snacks in 4 oz cups ready to grab and toss in my lunch bag for work. I haven't been exercising like I should, but I'm losing about 2 pounds a week except for the 2 week stall. I have lost 40 lbs since being sleeved Hope this helps

Are you guys taking pro-biotics to help with constipation ? I read where PB8 was a good choice. I'm honking about trying them.

I have had friends that have had great success and friends that have gained it all back plus more. The ones that gained grazed all day long and never exercised. The ones that are now slim and trim and live for the beach worked at it. They stayed active and put some effort into weight loss. One did have all the problems ( drainage tube for 6 months, appendix, gallbladder and spleen removed, stayed in and out of hospital for the first year. But she is skinny now and enjoying life.

Tylenol pm would be better for you

When did you try to eat steak ?
