General questions 6 mths out



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone i have some questions for people 6 mths or more out:

1. Protein - still cant get more than 40 grms per day, dont do Protein shakes and really struggle, any suggestions?

2. Reflux - still have some symptons not every day, has anyone found this to get better with time?

3. hair Loss - mine started at about 3-4 mths still falling out, does anyone know when it eases?

4. Morning blah - i wake up some mornings and just feel blah an hour later all good, anyone else wake up not feeling 100%

Any replies greatly appreciated.....

1. I don't do protein shakes...trying to cut down on artifical sweeteners and eat more whole unprocessed foods...but if you don't have a problem with lunch meat you can do lunch meat roll-ups with cheese and eat them as a snack. That will give you an extra 20-30gm.

2. I had reflux before surgery so I have to take my prilosec at least every other day or I will get a reminder! lol

3. Didn't loose much.

4. Not a morning person anyway. I perk up after coffee.

Just saw your last question...I stopped tracking 3 months out...I decided I will start back tracking when not tracking is not working for me. Trial it for a week and see how you do.

      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.
