Protein, Protein, Protein...



Recommended Posts

The flaxseed has the added benefit of keeping you regular. At least it does for me. I sprinkle it on my oatmeal or mix it with strawberries. It has an earthy, nutty taste. Not bad, just took some getting used to. I did experience a bit of hairloss despite my efforts to get enough protien in. I started taking Biotin pills and using Nioxin shampoo/cond and it did seem to help. Or maybe it was just coincidence, as I've heard the loss phase doesn't last that long. Now I have new little 'baby hair' growing in at my temples where it had gotten thin. I waited a few months before getting highlights because I didn't want to further damage my hair. I got highlights in July and did feel like I was losing hair every time I showered, but I think I'm just really aware of it more now than I was before. It could likely be the same amount I always loss with each shower. Who knows.. lol.

I do struggle to get Protein in sometimes, but before banding I wasn't this diligent about Protein so I have a hard time believing it's the protein that is related to the Hair loss.< /p>

They told me the same thing. And When I got the 80 I really noticed a difference. I make 1 shake a day that I keep in the fridge and sip on all day long. When i don't feel like a shake I drink an Isopure.< /p>

I also make a mean chili that is practically ALL Protein once a week.
