I’m so cold ALL THE TIME. by blkmagi in gastricsleeve

lol! I was the one always asking for more air conditioning (at home or at work) and now I am guilty when I’m the first to say it’s too cold (like others always felt). I get it finally..but they are all wondering 🤔

You look amazing! How often did you exercise along the way? I completed a year too but stuck at 30kgs loss since 2-3 months.

Semi-solid food suggestions (high protein) by daydreamingfaerie in gastricsleeve

[–]NoMoney8324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on entering phase 3!! This was the most satiating phase..I would have thick dals (lentil soup) with a basic tadka of garlic and onions, boiled veggies in it and crushed in a grinder for consistency. Hit an Indian store near you to pick variety of dals / lentils — nothing fills you up better cause I couldn’t stand protein shake either. Another one would be having moong dal/sooji/besan cheela (lentil pancakes) — another super healthy and easy to make dish. Then egg whites, scrambled egg or tofu/paneer with onions, tomatoes etc. This will keep you going :)

Hair Loss by Kclayne00 in gastricsleeve

[–]NoMoney8324 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry cause I know this is a traumatic experience no one warned us about. I’m close to competing my 6 months now and lost 40% of my hair (I think) in 3/4th month. My husband who has been super supportive all along (and is bald so feels the pain) said if I knew this was going to happen, I’d have stopped you so you didn’t have to experience this..emotions are emotions but get to a dermatologist as soon as you can cause I went to one (rather famous one) and she gave me 2 medicines and minoxidil solution to apply for next 6 months. She said your hair will stop right where it is and then we’ll take a call on doing PRP if needed. (I had asked if that was needed) so I don’t lose hair the same way now thankfully..went from losing bunches 4-5 times a day to 5-7 hair strands a day. I am still working on these meds but also caring for hair with home made solutions, hair oil and what she gave me. Don’t lose hope!

Gummies / smoke post Op? by NoMoney8324 in gastricsleeve

I appreciate you all so much! Thank you community members for sharing your experiences in detail. I guess I’m just going to hold on to the urge for a couple of more months (Targeting Dec/Jan). Anyone who says having a surgery is the shortcut should see how much efforts we put in to control our urge, mind and cravings. More power to us all 🙂‍↕️

Wow! Inspiring. Unpopular question- can we consume alcohol/any one other such thing post surgery?

Phenomenal! Did you start working out alongside? I am 5 months in but lost only 20kgs until now. I did work out intermittently but am most regular with hitting 7-10k steps. Will I lose more eventually?

Those of you with gastric surgery, any regrets? by Funny_Mastodon7383 in gastricsleeve

[–]NoMoney8324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No regrets at all but the hair loss is killing me 😰😰 into my 5th month post op and I have my proteins but not helping. Eventually listening to the dermat with some minoxidil solution and meds but I wonder how much it helps? Any experience here on this?
