Pinkgirl1234 replied to mmy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Same here...Popsicles are a lifesaver and I keep nuts around and have them occasionally or nicks organic Snacks.If is a beef or turkey snack.It is like turkey or beef Jerky.No added sugar.It is high protein and cuts the urge...head hunger etc. -

I loved (isopure beverages)pre op...post op they tasted dreadful...ugh I have a whole case ...yuck I got them from the Vitamin Shoppe -
I asked the doctor he had no definitive answer other than it could be a side effect of anesthesia and morphine withdrawal....in other words...from the intravenous drug withdrawal from surgery.

Its hard work and WLS isn't easy and you have to work hard to get the weight off.People think that WLS is performed and weight drops off magically....it's a commitment...and constant management.....patience... -
It's normal...I think it is trauma after the surgery...It will get better...everyday will get better...

Mine lasted for a week.I was so upset because I wanted to take excedrine so bad....Tylenol was what I could take.,.In your case are you a caffeine/coffee drinker?If you are you could be experiencing caffeine withdrawal.

My hair is ruined....it is shedding and thinning.I am 4 months post op and it is a daily battle.It is thin ,tangling,and just horrible.I am taking biotin and collagen and it is not helping.... I have to cut it.It is like threads hanging from my scalp.

It is attacking me pretty hard.I am afraid to put a color rinse in my hair.I get enough protein.I take biotin and collagen...nothing is helping.It has become so thin and stringy.

Pinkgirl1234 replied to Pinkgirl1234's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Yes a decline on the scale I will take.My appetite has returned 4 month post op but I control it with small protein meals spaced out.I must incorporate the oatmeal at least 3x weekly or suffer crazy constipation.I have cut out sugar.The protein drinks have about 2 grams of sugar max.No fruits just vegetables and protein.I struggle with water intake. -
I have no choice at this point...ugh...

Feeling like crap is normal..,it will get better.

Have a conversation with your doctor before.They must stress your comorbidies...
