Feeling so hungry for the past 3 days. It scares the **** out of me. And it seems like I can eat more at one sitting.

My god I hope this is temporary. :(

My hair has been thinning' date=' but it seems to have slowed down a bit. I've been taking Vitamin B12 & started Biotin. I hope it's working and that my hair will grow back and get thick again. A friend of mine who had three surgery two years ago said her hair stopped falling out and grew back. It took awhile. I'll ask her how long.

I am the same 5'3" and my doctor said 150. I really want to be in the healthy range of 130. My neighbor had bypass and says that she struggles to stay above 140 so I'm hoping I have that "problem". The bad thing is she has lost so much hair. I haven't seen her in a while so I'm not sure how she is now. I'm very scared about that. Everytime I wash my hair I am worrying about hairloss. Have any of you noticed Hair loss? Is it ok to die your hair after surgery?

I didn't know my natural hair color because I've been highlighting it since I was 16 so I died my hair dark brown before surgery trying to match my eyebrows. It turns out my natural hair color was actually dirty blonde so now I have light roots with dark brown hair. It looks so weird' date=' but I'd rather have weird hair color that no hair at all LOL!!

Good luck ladies!! I'm counting down the days till I get below 230. I've been stuck in the 230s for about 2 weeks now.[/quote']

I'm kind of stuck, too. I so want to get below 200, but it seems so slow & I'm stuck at 235. It's annoying. I'm trying to stay positive.

I have been coloring my hair. It seems fine. I added Vitamin e, too. That helps too I think. Consistency is the key.

Hang in there!

I started Biotin just in case too. I finally broke out of 230s but just barely. I'm at 227 and I feel like I'm eating next to nothing and no carbs at all. How are you doing?

Biotin is a Protein that is supposed to promote hair growth. My dietitian recommended it. I get the chewable kind so it's easily absorbed.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
