What have you used to get your hair back?? My self esteem is so low when i should be feeling so great[emoji52] i take bariatric fusion vitamins and biotin 5000mg. Also using biotin and collagen shampoo. I get my protein and fluids in with no problem. Any remedies would be helpful, im considering womens Rogaine but scared it may make my hair fall out more, and as you can see theres not much left! First pic was right after surgery then 6 months post op HW 260 CW 185 Sleeved 2/8/2017

kkami12 replied to FollowingMyPath's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wasnt fatigued right after surgery but now at 3 months out i am always tired! What the heck!?! I had so much energy and then all of the sudden hit a brick wall [emoji42] HW 260 SW 245 CW 200 Sleeved 2/8/2017 -
Yessssss! I hate it, every single f'n day my coworkers ask how much i am down too, i had to finally say i quit weighing myself. Slower weight loss process 3 months out for me so i felt i kept saying the same weight. People are so annoying. They say dont loose anymore, and im like im still 200lbs then they're like oh you dont look like you weigh that much[emoji19] HW 260 SW 245 CW 200 Sleeved 2/8/2017

I know! It was my first time having them so i was suprised, the wings were small but i was shocked that i got the pizza down. But ive had hunger pains since about 1 month out. So maybe my stomach is larger than some? I weigh all my food usually i can intake about 5/6oz depending on the meal. HW 260 SW 245 CW 200 Sleeved 2/8/2017

Missing food: so emotional
kkami12 replied to katieroybal's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Believe me i was the same way i regretted the surgery the first couple of weeks.. i was sleeved feb 8th, now that i eat regular good its so much better. Yesterday was our easter get together and i said to myself i am enjoying myself eating what i want and grazed all day. Buffalo chik dip, ham,potatoes, linguini salad mac salad....It was devine lol i was suprised at the amount i could eat for dinner and had a nice peice of cake too. I felt normal! But today is back to reality and im back to measuring out my food, it was nice to have a free day. Also i am down 50lbs! I thought id gain weight from yesterday but i actually lost 1.5lbs, maybe i needed those extra carbs and calories! [emoji6] -
Regarding Bowel movements

Im 7 weeks post op and the last couple of days i feel like im so hungry. I get all of my protein in (3 meals and a shake sometimes a string cheese or cucmbers in between ) and also i drink 70oz+ of fluids. I feel the more i drink the hungrier i feel. Literally my stomach is growling constantly and my stomch feels so empty even with fluids. I try to keep my mind off of it keeping busy with my toddler and working full time but litterally i feel like im starving myself even if i ate 1.5hrs ago. Anyone in the same boat?🤔

All of the sudden im starving

I eat them so much too! Theyre just liquids too. I even eat dense proteins for my meals and hasnt helped much[emoji13] -
I have a high tolerance for pain and the first 2 days were very painful. Mainly gas pain. But walking and pain meds did nothing for me even in double doses. They cant give you gas x while in the hosp. They tell you to walk it out. After the second day each day got better, you wont be able to lay on your stomach or sides for a while though due to the incisions. Loosing weight is so worth a couole weeks of pain!

No weight loss, Denied?
kkami12 replied to chynadoll619's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told not to gain or loose more than 15 lbs throughout the whole 6 months or else insurance wouldn't approve, you should be fine. If anything it shows a supervised diet not working therefore surgery is needed -
Menstrual differences after being sleeved????
kkami12 replied to Amethyst Acinom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I spotted for a month after surgery,it sucked. dr said its normal for cycles to be off due to anesthesia and hormones being everywhere -
