Has anyone's facial skin complection changed? This morning after I was up for about 2 hours I felt my forehead and it was getting so oily. Almost like I was sweating. Then my husband just noticed it again. Does anyone have a clue? I see the doc tomorrow for my first check up.

I have always had an issue with oily skin but after surgery is been super dry and is dry all over my body. I can't keep enough lotion on to keep it from being dry. I almost wish I had the b oily skin back on my face because it looks horrible now with all the dry Patches.< /p>

That happened to me too... I actually had SUPER dry skin, I had to change my facial moisturizer & lotion because the ones I used before were not enough...

Wonder what would cause the oily vs dry skin...?

So far this week it hasn't happened this much. When I went for my check up the doc said my body is under severe stress and my hormones are all over the place.

      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.
