Getting your hair professionally colored?
jacquelynn22 posted a topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
Surgery date is October 11th! WooHoo! I know about hair loss after surgery. Thoughts and/or experience on coloring your hair after surgery, I've heard some people wait 6 months, some a year, some never stop. -
I am meeting with my surgeon in a week to hopefully talk about a surgery date. The surgeon wanted me to lose 10-15 pound prior to this appointment, and I haven't been able to! I have major anxiety about this and am worried he will choose to not move forward. Has anyone gone through something similar?

How many days did it take for you to have your first bowel movement after surgery?! On day four and nothing yet.

Almost to full foods stage, once I am there is it still only 2oz. Do I weigh all my food together to make 2oz . . . a little confused . . .

Thank you! -
After surgery did you get the “bariatric burr” did you feel colder than usual?! If so when did it happen, right after surgery or a few days/weeks after?

My daughter made me laugh last night. She was getting ready for bed while I was watching Downton Abbey (a show placed in 1912) She stops to watch and goes “wow that’s in the olden days, right?” I said yes! She goes “like 1989?” . . . I died. I said, Noooooooo!! Like 1912 She said “oh so I was close!?” Haha She’s 6 She’s always good for a laugh!

Glad you’re doing good now. -
Question about sleeping. I don’t think I was ever told I had to sleep on my back and for how long. I’m a side sleeping but I’m paranoid to sleep on my side in fear or messing something up. . . Was anyone told they need to sleep on their backs and for how long?!

I’m feeling really good as well. I have to knock on wood cause I’ve been doing great. Able to drink and keep liquids down. I did stay a night in the hospital but so glad to be home now. I’m able to move and juts get tried after a bit. But doing great otherwise. -

October 2023 surgery buddies
jacquelynn22 replied to Shotputqueen's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery is in two days and I can relate to this so much. Its so scary how food has become an addiction to so many of us. I am actually SCARED of not being able to eat or drink what I want or how much I want. It sounds completely insane, but I get it. We are changing our lives in a big way, but its 100% for the better. ❤️ -
Butter and Olive Oil, are you still using it? If you've chosen to substitute what are you using?
