Hi , I'm 5 months post op , I noticed hairloss around 1month a go , when I wash my hair I lose the most , some days I loose more hair then others, I take my vitamins everyday , I don't get my 80g of protein in a day like I should, I'm really starting to try hit my target each day now of 80g , I've added in protein shakes to help achieve this, how long does this hairloss go on for ? It's been 1 month, i really don't want to loose anymore 😓😥😢 I take the highest strength biotin I started taking that 1 month pre op, I'm going to start taking collegen , is this something I just need to ride out ? I know my hair will grow back but I don't want to lose it in the first place

I'm 5 months post op and I've lost 27kg , I have 20kg more to go untill I hit target , when did you start to maintain? My doctor told me after 12 months things start to slow down, is this true? I'm really hoping I will reach my goal , I'm putting a lot of work in Tia

So I think I found the issue , I've increased my calories and I have so much more energy now 😊

Strange isn't it, maybe it's because we're not eating as much as we was ? , when I came out of hospital I recovered so quickly, I had no pain, I didn't even need to stay in over night because I was doing so well , now a couple of months have passed I feel so week, hopefully you will feel better soon and hopefully I will too!

I do try to get a balanced diet, I could do with eating more veg though , I'll try up my fruits and veg and see if that helps, thanks

I had a full blood count done 2 weeks ago and everything came back fine , I have a vitamin b jab booked for 2 weeks time

So I had my surgery a couple of months ago and I feel so weak! Just walking round a supermarket drains every bit of my energy and my body aches after , I'm not strong like I used to be, I'm really trying to get my protein In , I've done well today with 80g but some days I only get 30g in , when will I get my energy back?

This is completely normal, I didn't go for over 2 weeks, you need to try drink as much as possible , keeping hydrated will help

This is so interesting! Thankyou!

Hi so I'm on the pill and I don't have periods as my pill stops this, 2 weeks before my op I was spotting, I don't know if the milk diet stressed my body out , I had my op 3 weeks ago, I'm having such a heavy period! Is this normal ? Anyone else experience this after surgery? I've been on for 5 weeks ! I have a appointment with my doctor in a couple of weeks, just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced long heavy periods after surgery?

I haven't had a movement in 2 weeks and i take senna every night !

Oh really! That's a shame, thankyou, I hope so ! I really hate this stage so far

So I'm still on the liquid stage , the first few days I was eating just fine , then the last few days everything I'm eating just tastes horrible, I've been eating yoghurt, protein shakes, homemade soup ,low sugar custard, I'm sick of food! I'm hoping pureed stage will be better ! 4 days to go and I can try puree

Thankyou! 😊

Hi , so I'm 5 days post op , I'm on the liquid stage, everything I'm eating tastes to sweet ! So I have been eating, yoghurt,protein shakes, chicken soup, I used to have such a sweet tooth before and now I really don't! My surgeon said I can have anything as long as it's smooth liquid , any ideas what i can have? Struggling here!
