Hello I was wondering when everybody started eating again when I say that I mean eating somewhat normal again I had surgery September 26, 2016. So I'm at about six months here and I am able to eat almost everything I have had a difficult time with meats from surgery till now I was not able to eat meat at all yesterday I ate half a chicken finger and that was OK in a couple days before I ate half a tuna sandwich. So slowly I'm getting back to eating meats but I am eating and sometimes it makes me nervous how do you know if you're stretching your stomach back out ??? I still can't eat a lot at once but I am eating frequently throughout the day little things. Also I still haven't had any caffeine everything I get is decaf does anybody know if we need to do this for life a lot of different people around the world on here have said different things about the caffeine some patients we're having caffeine in the hospital so I am just a little confused what it be OK if I had a regular ice coffee like once a week?

Are you experienced the same thing it started up for me at three months I'm now at six months and still losing hair I take extra strength biotin and I just don't feel like it's working luckily the surgeon told me that this is going to happen up to nine months and then stop I also got some hair extensions that I can clip and sometimes I wear them and it makes me feel better I also got at the local beauty supply really good shampoo that's been helping it's made by cat walk it is the oatmeal and honey nourishing shampoo for dry damaged hair I got the shampoo and conditioner and it does help but it is quite pricey Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Both surgeries are great procedures for patients in need. But a lot of people are not educated on with the sleeve is. It's starting to aggravate me when I talk to my friends who have had bypass and they say to me they chose the bypass because you lose more weight with that. My surgeon told me from the beginning initially I wanted the bypass but. I didn't want to reroute my intestines so I went with the sleeve he told me that the weight-loss difference between the two is very minimal like two or 3 pounds and he's been doing this for many years. I just can't listen to people thinking that the bypass is better or the sleeve is worse people are just being ignorant Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My biggest struggle is also the drinking waiting after I eat to drink is so hard. Sometimes when I eat things I worry that I'm stretching my stomach but I don't know if it's just me being paranoid Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
