One more question......what about Hair loss? My hair is already baby thin and I can't really afford to lose any hair!!! I'm just few days out before surgery on Monday but I have started Biotin. I tried to take fish oil too but it is giving my crazy reflux. I read that biotin doesn't stop hair loss but I don't know what else to do.

If your hair is going to fall out, it's going to fall out and really in my experience there is nothing that you can do about it. Taking at least 5000 mg of biotin will help with healthy new Hair growth but won't prevent it from happening. Nothing will prevent it. It starts around the 3 month mark. Good luck on your surgery!

I'm hoping since we're young our skin will have enough elasticity and will return to "normal"... I've had 3 c-sections so I know where my problme area will be but I'm hoping my back fat, arms and legs will return to normal.

Hi sleevers' date=' I'm new to the site. Surgery on July 22. I'm 26, 5'2", 243# and I'm worried about how my skin will do with weight loss and my boobs. Will anybody in their 20's be willing to share their experience? Thanks[/quote']

I am wondering the same thing. I turn 30 a week after my surgery( oct 22). I'm already planning for new boobs. I would love a Tummy Tuck. Two babies in 18 months will make any girl want those. Let hope everything bounces back somewhat :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
