Feeling Awesome! But Have Some ?



Recommended Posts

Hello!

After having 2 1/2 weeks off work for surgery and recovery, I returned to work today:) I felt so good when everyone kept telling me I looked great! They complemented me on my appearance. " you look wonderful, your face looks thinner, your upper body frame also looks slimmer" I swear I loved the attention and comments! I am however a little tired mainly due to the early rise this morning.

Had a quick question: I am eating mostly Protein, pureed/soft meats, cheese(cottage or string cheese) sometimes soft fruit like peaches, etc... has anyone experienced Constipation?

IM not sure I am getting the proper protein levels in either. I got the ok to begin taking my Vitamins again. I am currently taking a Multivitamin Flinstones chewable... They recommended Vitamin b-12 for nerves, metabolism, energy....

What about hair? I have REALLY thin hair to begin with.... I dont want it to fall out due to insufficiency.Any suggestions?? GNC Hair,skin and Nail supplements>>???

I have my 1 month follow up appts with dietician and bariatrician nurse next week:) cANT BELIEVE IT WILL WE A MONTH ALREADY!

The Protein will probably do more to help minimize Hair loss than anything else you could take. Has anyone not had Constipation would probably be a better question - LOL! Milk of Magnesia is what my doctor recommended and it works. Be sure to get the flavored kind - the unflavored is really nasty stuff. There are other options as well. You can probably just call your doctor's office and they'll give you some ideas over the phone. It's miserable but it passes (no pun intended :-) pretty quickly.

      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.
