Research iron (ferritin levels) and L Lysine for hairloss

I want to workout mostly at home, any ideas for sites or apps (free) that help you plan exercise? THANKS

Safe and speedy recovery!

I had infusions with a Hematologist at a cancer treatment center, so my journey was very safe and it resolved my problems. BUT as with any proceduce routine or not it is best to do dome research and then weight the benefits against the risks (just like with WLS)

Sleeved 11/7 SW 238 CW 210 I was 270 at my heaviest in 2014 ALSO cant believe the progress

Im from the US, So I do not know how the healthcare system works there but have you tried advocating for IV infusions of Iron? I had the same problem with anemia and it was the only thing that worked for me. And it was this same reason i chose VSG. Also be very vocal about your choice of the VSG above RNY and state why. Hope that helps (from south of the border)

Stur liquid water enhancer is made with stevia But a word of caution Your ability to stomach stevia may change post surgery I used only Stevia in my life prior to surgery and now more than one serving makes me have a reaction now similar to dumping and i was sleeved (dumping usually does not happen with the sleeve) Safe journey

I'm also Almost 7 weeks out Have you tried clear protein drinks or protein waters? Also adding ice or water to those super sweet protein shakes really helps... And not a popular opinion but you may have to buckle down and survive one swallow at a time. Speady recovery

OK so please please please advocate for a change in pain meds. I was non responsive to opiate, they did nothing for my pain no matter how much I got. You may have the same problem but only a change will tell. Breathe deeply don't panic and keep advocating for the best care possible by your team including changes you want to try

No scale for me I use them when available like at a friends house or doctors appointment which is not often I hold myself accountable by tracking everything I consume. Bonus I never know about my stalls

Super happy, I had no complications so it was smooth sailing for me Research everything Don't buy too much ahead of time Follow your plan closely Walk even if it's only for a few mins indoors Smile in the mirror even if you don't like what you see yet Track food and water meticulously Don't become a slave to the scale

Amazing, congrats on your hard work and success

Incision site pain, drain site pain, shoulder pain, abdominal pain? May be gas, normal healing, overexertion ... Figure out where it hurts most and that me give you clues to help when you speak to your doctor

How are you doing now?

Hi did you have the sleeve first or straight into the DS procedure?

Thanks for this, vegetarian resources are hard to come by

My insurance was not as rigorous and didn't require the weight loss or waiting period, so that may be a factor for some. Also the classes vary greatly by center. I received a 4 page book on the diet after surgery and IMHO it was not detailed enough in respect to variations on themes of food groups. So the amount of information distributed can be vastly different and people come to sites like these to glean information from others in similar positions Because honestly at 8pm my Surgeon and NUT are no longer answering non emergency questions...

I had sleeve surgery about 7 weeks ago but can't seem to update my profile

OMG gorgeous Do you also have before pics?

May I suggest flushing at various points in your bathroom session, smaller amounts SHOULD flush easily

Speedy and easy recovery!!

Congrats and welcome!

I was exhausted also but this at merger type of tired caffeine can't fix. May I suggest B12 supplements

Wow, please provide greater detail to help someone else can know the risks you are specifically speak of...
