Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Thank you Omg that's exactly how I feel I it's so weird and scary because i feel I can't eat a lot but then when o eat like solid foods like meat chicken especially I get full fast but when I eat watermelon like o have so much lately I can easily eat a bowl of that and cottage cheese. Calories I think about 950-1000 or a little more right now But I'm losing faster now I'm not working out like I should. I'm not in a rush for fear of my skin sagging too fast. 1 nlaws reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JapGirl 229 Posted June 21, 2016 I'm doing about 800 most days. But some days it's closer to 1000. I can only eat about 2oz of grilled chicken, but soft stuff like fruits and lettuce I can eat alot of.... But I can drink a 24oz bottle of Water in less 30 minutes. And it also depends on the day. Some days I'm hungry all the time some days I'm not hungry at all. I think it has alot to do with me not drinking enough Water or forgetting my acid preventative on those days.

SleevedAmy 3 Posted June 21, 2016 Hey everyone! Hope you are all well. My surgery date was Feb 18th weight 260 now 220. I feel like I have hit a wall. My hair is now coming out in clumps and I have been eating my Protein. I need some encouragement. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My hair is now coming out in clumps and I have been eating my Protein. I need some encouragement. Any suggestions would be appreciated!Congratulations on the weight loss! I have been losing hair too (it's pretty common unfortunately). Go combat jt, I have increased my Protein to a minimum of 80 grams (usually closer to 90-100), also take Nature Made dissolving Biotin & Vitamin C (from walmart),my Vitamins, and I just got a B-12 shot. Some people also suggest using Biotin Shampoo. As far aa the weight loss, I have lost 46 lbs and my surgeon said that's a good loss. It seems we are all around 40-50 lb. I too have hit a hard stall, but I think my calories are to high, and my carbs. Also, I haven't been working for a while. Maybe take a look at those things, and just keep the faith!
