I didn’t have to do another one. My sleep doctor just went over what to expect as I lost weight. I will need another one as I get closer to goal weight however. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 175.0

So apparently the stress of losing extreme amounts of weight can cause enough stress on the body that it might trigger shingles even in a younger demographic. After being diagnosed with shingles this morning, I came across several posts where people have gotten shingles during active weight loss phase. Fun times! HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 179.8

Mine started out as shoulder pain also and then spread to my neck. It was two weeks before I got the blisters. I had gone to the chiropractor two days ago to work on my shoulder and neck. Since I’m already two weeks in the doctor was hopeful I was already getting close to it being at it’s worst pain wise. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 179.8

Dizziness 2 months out
alcn1derlnd replied to Sqkysphnctr's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
What is your electrolyte intake like? I was getting dizziness from dehydration even though I was drinking plenty of fluids. I wasn’t taking in enough sodium which meant the fluids were going right through me and compounding the problem. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 185.0 -

Gastric Bypass and PCOS/Diabetes

I had surgery at the end of June and by the end of September all of my PCOS hormone levels came back in normal range. My endocrinologist was thrilled. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 185.0 -

dumping with artificial sweetners
alcn1derlnd replied to TakingABreak's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I dump with too many sugar alcohols which means I can’t do many of the protein bars. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 185.0 -

There are several different coagulation products (9 I think) the blood and they only check two usually prior to surgery, a protime and a prothrombin time. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 185.0 -

If you aren’t allergic to it buy lanolin it will fix chapped lips overnight, one application. I use the kind you get in the baby aisle that is designated for breastfeeding women. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 196.2

100 miles in 100 days fitness challenge
alcn1derlnd replied to alcn1derlnd's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Low week only 3. I’ve been so impressed with everyone’s number. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 198.4 -
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a fitness challenge to complete 100 miles in 100 days. I've done one in the past and it helps keep you accountable for exercising. The one that I did in the past used twenty minutes of any exercise equaled a mile or actual walking or running distance. Though anyone interested could start on Monday Sept 11th which would go through to Dec 20th. Maybe post weekly totals and I will come up with a spreadsheet. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 219.8

What's your beauty secret?
alcn1derlnd replied to ChaosUnlimited's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
My favorite moisturizer is pure lanolin at night. I found some liquid lanolin on Amazon. It goes on easier if your face and hands are damp. For concealer for dark under eyes I like NYX undereye with a couple of drops of argon oil added to it. I also like Becca under eye illuminating creme HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 198.4 -

Not post surgery. It took me a year before I had a period after I stopped depo. I switched to the low dose pill after I got regulated and ended up getting pregnant with my daughter. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 198.4

Magnesium can be a big one for cramping and leg spasms. My neurologist has me take it for Restless Legs Syndrome and it got rid of my Charlie horses too. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 200.6

Concerned about hair loss. Remedies?
alcn1derlnd replied to PNWlady12's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Random strands. Kind of like the hair loss you get after pregnancy. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 200.6
