Yes my doctor just did my 3 month blood work waiting on results to see what's going on

Hi! How are you? I was thinking about you and I was looking on insurenutrition.com and it was talking about how important it is to get enough Protein. It says that one of the things that can happen is potential Hair loss. It's on the home page of the website. I also read that the type of protein is also very important and that we should take in whey protein isolate, which I didn't know before I read it in The Complete Idiot's Guide to Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery. It's a really good book, written by Margaret Furtado and Joseph Ewing. I thought this info might help your hair loss. Whatever the reason, I hope it is a really simple fix. Keep us informed. ????

I will order the book I have increased my Protein but was out this weekend I think I got dehydrated so trying to get in lots of Fluid which is hard but I'll get there. Hopefully I will hear tomorrow on my blood work so they can figure out just what I need to do. Hope everyone has a great evening thank you for all the support

      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.
