carrion

Only my husband knows and I'm ok with that. Someone noticed my weight loss (45 pounds in 3 months so it's slow) and I just said I'm eating much better and exercising.

I don't have any advice other than what people have said. I'm so sorry you are going through this. I had three pregnancy tests done before my surgery - including one a few hours before the surgery time to be extra sure. Good wishes to you - I hope you have an uneventful pregnancy!

I was just coming on to post about my hair loss too. I have always had fine hair but a lot of it. I'm 10 weeks post of and it's coming out in sheets. No one really notices yet I guess but it's much flatter now. Can we take Biotin in addition to the vitamin supplements we take (which already contain biotin)

this is so strange. I'm 5.5 weeks out and lost just under 40 pounds. I was eating about 4 oz per meal as I began my soft food diet last week. I ate slowly and definitely got that feeling of when was full and often didn't finish my meal or take a bit longer to finish it. Yesterday, I ate a Greek yogurt and realized I ate 5oz with no problems. No full feeling. huh Today, all my meals have been the same way. Even drinking Water. That funny feeling in my stomach to tell me I'm full is gone. If I hadn't measured out my portion, I probably could have eaten more? I also noticed that I would only be able to finish half a small cup of coffee and today and I could drink all of it with no physical signal/issues. Can even drink water more easily. I did increase my water intake quite a bit b.c of severe constipation and Dr. told me to increase it. I find this so strange. Anyone else experience this? I actually liked the physical sensation of feeling super full. It was a good signal for me. Can a stomach suddenly stretch out?

Thanks for all the posts! Sensation did come back but not like it was before so I really have to pay attention to the new signals! I was told I can have vegetables if they are soft Still no raw fruit or vegetables until 6 months or so - including salad. Can't wait to have salad again!!!

I didn't think of that. It does make sense and I suddenly feel a lot better/like my old self and no longer have mobility restrictions. I can sleep on my side/stomach again. I'll start measuring and weighing my food now to keep on top of it. Did this happen to anyone else?
