I am 2 months post op and never been happier! I am healthier than I thought possible and I am full of energy. My dr said I am a model patient everything is great. Thank you dr. Taylor:) I went into surgery at 243 pounds today I am at 193, 50 pounds lost woo hoo. My only problem to date is eating slow I do fine most of the time but occasionally forget and than I pay for it. But all in all I am happy with my decision and hope it keeps going well.

A bit scared to see if I lose a lot of hair but I'm hopeful that I won't. Any one have any imput on Hair loss?

did you take extra Vitamins

Yes. I take Juvenon which is sold over the internet. I have been taking this for about 10 years now. It contains Acetyl L-Carnitine HCl and Alpha Lipoic Acid. It helps to restore the mitochondria in my cells. It also contains Biotin. Around 10 years ago, one of the side effects of this product is that it stopped my hair from falling out. I was around 55 at the time and my hair was starting to thin significantly because of age. It also helped to reverse the hair from going gray.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
