I can't make a decision
GreenTealael replied to CashmereAndBones's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I hear that yo yo dieting is straining on the heart and other major organs (can someone confirm, I've never done it). I'd would rather succeed the first time than fail five times just to end up back at the same conclusion two years later that I need surgical help, if you take a look at my post, you can absolutely have a life, everything in moderation. I don't go off the rails and eat whatever. I work everything into my plan with my NUT especially vacation and special occasion foods. I don't eat sugars that are not naturally occurring in foods and those I use sparingly, I use stevia if I must have added sweetness the other sugar alcohols if nothing else is available. You are going to still have to practice portion control and restraint after the procedure. Restriction provided through it does not last forever. What this procedure will do is give you a running start so you can exercise, you can learn to eat less, you can make better choices. Not everyone does and that's why not everyone has the success they hope. In the end it is still all on you. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169 -

GreenTealael replied to KCgirl061's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I missed that part , my apologies,It can change,it may subside but doesnt have to but you won't know until you are over that mountain... The closer I get to my dysmorphic state the calmer the symptoms are... VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169 -
Body Dysmorphia
GreenTealael replied to KCgirl061's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
The way body dysmorphia presents is not always the same and can vary within the lifetime of the individual. A person can incorrectly PERCEIVE themselves and the physical changes that may occur may have no bearing. I have body dysmorphia, mirrors don't give me correct perspective, only photos and only sometimes. The brain is wild... VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169 -
A year and a half post-op...
GreenTealael replied to thestruggleisreal83's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Perhaps you could go back to a bare bones menu, protein first, then vegetables mostly leafy greens, some healthy fats, then complex carbs sparingly no sugars at all to get back to weight loss mode. Track everything. Its tiresome but you will know what the problem is immediately, it may be that 1600 cals is maintenance but 1300 is weight loss for you, read the articles and advice if the VETS and push your metabolism into gear by starting a new exercise regimen. Let us know how it goes! VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169 -

How much Biotin do you take?
GreenTealael replied to BajanSleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hair loss ultimately seems like luck of the draw, but in my research your Iron feritin levels need to be good, as well as all other Vitamin and minerals and Protein levels need to be superb. Then there was research being conducted with the amino acid llysine and male pattern baldness that in turn was conducted in other types of Hair loss that seemed promising... But biotin will not do anything for this specific condition, telogen effluvium. VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169 -

Confirmed with a web moderator , the author of a post is directly affected positively when you like the original post, not just respond. So show a little love and hit the little heart or laughing face or which ever emoji you decide. But don't forget the Author!!! VSG2017 HW 249 SW 238 CW 169
