Topic: RE: Hey all you february LOSERS!!!!
Wow you are doing great!! My surgery date was February 13th and I have lost 60 pounds since surgery and 35 before the surgery in Options class, that's what Kaiser make you do to have WLS. I am down a total of 95 pounds I feel great and I am off all my meds. both BP and reflux. Life is great! I do get sick once in a while but I'm ok with that. I hope everyone has a great weekend! Hugs, Lisa

I had my surgery on 2/21/08 so I am right at three months out and have lost 60 lbs. I do have issues with nausea and meat doesn't go down too well most of the time. I just keep trying new things and eventually I will find things that work for me. I supplement with a couple of protein drinks every day to make sure I get my protein in and take my Biotin to keep the hair loss to a minimum. I go for my three month check up next week. He should be pleased with my progress. I am! Sandi 2/21/08 258/197/130

I am taking Biotin 5000 mg per day and also supplementing my diet with two extra protein shakes (EAS ADVANTAGE CARB CONTROL) per day. I still have problems with most meats and am allergic to fish so I need to supplement. And my hair is still coming out. Good thing I have thick hair. Sandi

Topic: RE: HAIR LOSS!!!!!!!
Sorry to hear about your hair loss. What I have been told about hair loss is to keep your protein levels btwn 60-80 grams/day. If you are consistantly getting less then 60g/day then you are going to see more hair loss. Others use Biotin (sp). But I have heard that it can cause hair growth other places beside your head (ie face). I would up your protein levels first and see if that makes a difference. Good luck. tina

Losers we are!!!! GOOD FOR YOU ANGELA!!! I'm excited to say that I have lost a whopping 53lbs. WLS was done on Feb. 20th, I was 260 then. I was stuck for a while but things are moving along as they should. My Doctor is very pleased with my results. It's so true about the protein. The more intake the better the results. I have just started eating just about everything (according the foods I can have) and I must say I feel fine. I can actually see my knees and I'm not saying the other part I can see but nevertheless I am PLEASED!
