Dry dry skin :(



Recommended Posts

I'm about 7 months post and my face is progressively getting drier and drier. To the point that I'm putting aquaphore on my face at night, which is pretty gross. Most days I make the 64 oz Water goal but not 100%. Is anyone else having this issue? It sure doesn't help the wrinkles I'm getting on my neck and face from fat loss.

I rub coco butter over my body after I shower! It helps

I havent had surgery yet but my face gets super dry. I put coconut oil on my skin at night before bed. It has helped tremendously.

I'll have to try coconut oil tonight. It's getting ridiculous.

Have you tried adding an oily supplement? Fish oil or evening primrose oil? I find that helps. Also add a face oil to your evening routine. Coconut oil left on overnight might not be great for pores in the long term. Great for getting makeup off though.

I was reading about that last night. Ordered some orange fish oil packets on Amazon today. I'm really hoping it helps. My husband and I noticed reddish dry spots on my neck today.

I am 3 weeks post op and my skin is ridiculously dry already. I will be adding some fish oil capsules in a week or two.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
