What biotin do most of you take with good results and no facial hair growth? Im beginning to lose my hair and don't want that to happen because Im growing it for donation to Children with Hair Loss and still need another couple of inches before I can donate.

I add low carb yogurt to my cottage cheese, fresh or canned fruit or just eat it plain.

When did you start stomach exercises after being sleeved?

Insurance paid for my sleeve but i just received notice they refused paent on my hospital room. Makes absolutely no sense to me but Im going to appeal it because they authorized the surgery and knew It would be an overnight stay. My out of pocket was $2,500 because thats what my insurance has it set at but with my deductible as well I was $3,000 out. Make sure your doctor is in your insurance network and it will be much cheaper on you.

This recipe is being shared from Bariatric Pal Craving bread? Fill that craving with this declicious and almost carb-free cloud 'bread.' Cloud bread can be used as a snack or part of a meal. Note: This recipe makes about 10 peices of bread. Refrigerate leftovers. Ingredients: 3 eggs, separated 3 tablespoons whole milk cottage cheese or 3 tablespoons cream cheese 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 (1 g) packet stevia or your favorite sugar free sweetener Directions: Preheat your oven to 300*F. 1. Separate the egg yolks and whites into two separate bowls. Make sure that no yolk mixes with the egg whites. 2. In a large bowl mix the egg yolks with the cream cheese OR cottage cheese until well mixed. 3. In a separate bowl add the cream of tartar to the egg whites. Using a mixer (egg beater), mix the egg whites and cream of tartar until they are fluffy, white, and form peaks when you remove the beaters. 4. Fold (don't mix) the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites. Do this slowly and gently so the mixture remains fluffy (this is key!). 5. Take about 10 even scoops (about the size of a freshly baked cookie when placed on the pan) from the mixture and place them on 2 lightly greased cookie sheets (Cooking Spray works well). 6. Place on the middle racks in your oven and cook for 20 to 40 minutes until they are golden brown. Time varies depending on the size of your cloud bread and your oven, so keep an eye on them! 7. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature. 8. Once cooled, place in a plastic bag or tupperwear and place them in your refrigerator overnight. Note: It takes a few hours (overnight typically) in the fridge to get to the consistency of bread. If you try them too soon, they will crumble.

Im at 2 oz. of food no matter what type it is. I can drink 3 oz but not one more sip. I'm resolved to these amounts until such time as my body tells me it's ok to take another bite. I'm three weeks post op now and feeling great.
