Hi all!!! I had open RNY on june 16th I had a starting weight of 318 and I am now 231 thats -87 My hair is coming out so much it looks like a cat died in the tub every morning

Surgery Date: June 8th Starting weight: 242 Now: 180 Down 62 lbs. I was losing my hair and my nutritionist recommended Omega 3 Fish oil tablets (EPA-DHA). I take 2 tablets 3x a day. She said biotin was a waste of money. My hair stopped falling out.

My surgery was June 2nd and I am enjoying life to the fullest. I am down -81 pounds. I started at 315 and down to 234. I have not seen that for ages. I am much happier now and my hubby complains cause I'm not keeping him warm. He told me he feels like he is in a morgue. The weight is just falling off. I hope to reach the century mark by Christmas.

Hi Jacquie Wow you had yours a few days after mine. I think the more one has to loose the faster it comes off. My start weight was 339 to date I am 270 my goal is 155 I am tall and big bone. I now have found the liquid protien that is only 90 cal. and has 18 grams of protien. That has helped me out a lot. I am also getting out more and not sitting around having it melt off. I have more getting up and go and now the pounds are coming off again. I just have to remember that I am better off today than I was 3 months ago. and as long as I keep with in the guide lines of eating then I know I will be at goal this time next year!!! So good luck. And you will reach your GOAL also ... ....Carol
