PEANUT BUTTER IS EXCELLENT FOR GASTRIC BYPASS PATIENTS & FOR DIABETICS (INSTEAD OF USING BREAD, MUFFINS OR CRACKERS, PUT SOME ON CELERY STICKS ... NOT TO WORRY ABOUT THE FAT ... YOU WON'T EAT ENOUGH TO HURT YOUR EFFORTS, & YOUR BODY & SKIN NEED SOME FAT/OILS IN YOUR DIET TO STAY HEALTHY. STAY AWAY FROM THE FAST FOOD ITEMS, BUT NATURAL FATS/OILS ARE VERY GOOD FOR JUST ABOUT ANYONE. SOME BRANDS HAVE FAT-REDUCED PEANUT BUTTER ... THAT'S WHAT I USUALLY GET. THE OILS FROM NUTS ARE VERY GOOD FOR US. ALSO, THE OMEGA 3 OILS IN COLD WATER FISH LIKE SALMON, ARE FANTASTIC. STAY COMPLETELY AWAY FROM TRANS FATS = HORRIBLE FOR ANYONE & ANY KIND OF FAT THAT IS SOLID, LIKE LARD, ETC. I THINK YOU LOOK FOR THE WORD "HYDROGENATED" OR "PARTIALLY HYDROGENATED" (sp?) BECAUSE THAT IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU, BUT CORRECT ME IF I USED THE WRONG WORD ... I'M TIRED & NOT THINKING CLEARLY, BUT I THINK HYDROGENATED IS NOT HEALTHY FOR ANYONE AS WELL. GOD BLESS YOU ...

Patti... you are not in this boat alone. I am glad you posted this question because at 3 months out I am having terrible hair loss. I guess we will have to go to the wig shop together. =0) I am going to try the hair and nail supplements and the peanut butter too. Hang in there pal. Pam

Its normal and common. My doc said to up your zinc and iron and it would help with the hairloss. Its all micro nutrients, so you might want to get your blood levels checked, but we all went through it and its only temporary. I have baby hairs, lots of them that stick up further than the others, LOL You are fine. You might want to up your protein too, to at least 100gms per day Deb

Those are exactly the ones that I get, the ones in the pink box, and they really help, I think. Lisa
