      I did too as a pre-emptive strike and ended up not having hair loss post-op. At a year and a half out, the hairs from my part on top are almost to my shoulders.

      you are so lucky after 2 1/2 months post-op starting to come off :( but i guess is a new beginning so might as well start with a new hair style maybe a A-line will be cute for me :P ill post a picture with the finished product when i do it!!

  15. is banana shakes ok to drink 2 1/2 months out??

    1. Miss Mac

      Miss Mac

      My doctor told me at six weeks to wean away from whey protein shakes and go for natural food, but........I still have several 1/2 full/empty containers in the pantry. If I am extra hungry on a strength training day (twice a week), I will make one up, throw in 1/2 banana to sweeten it up, and throw in some fresh spinach if I have it. I am 17 months out.

    How soon can I move around?

    The only thing about driving is the seatbelt becomes uncomfortable on the incisions or if you brake hard you can hurt them just be careful when you drive!! And yeah when you are off the pain med you do get a DIU if the catch you driving after taking pain meds my doctor told me that!!
  18. Walking helps a lot and some people here have said heating pads too!! If anything call your surgeon too see what he suggests Hope you feel better

What is your diet like? i have a lot of restriction still so two spoons I'm full so i have to drink 2 shakes at day to make up for the Protein i do drink a to of gatorade as per my doctor because i can't handle Water and exercise i only walk a lot specially at work i can do around 8,00 steps at day can't do much since i have a very bad back pain and is the main reason i did the surgery so i can get some relief from the weight off from my back.
