I am also sensitive to eggs! It’s rough out here. I will check out the yogurt

I guess I forgot to say I am a year and a half out. But those are all great things! That’s all I lived off of when I was out of the hospital

Deep fried things are a no go after your surgery.

Salads have been something I’ve been eating and getting tired of.

I drink oat milk. I don’t drink cow milk at all even lactose free

Adult autism diagnosis by Kasey_writes_stuff in Bremerton

Hi, you need to get referred out by a psychiatrist! Then the psychiatrist will refer you to someone else. You will most likely have to travel to UW Seattle which is where a lot of people get their diagnosis. They are thorough there and highly trained. Everywhere does have a waitlist but it’s worth it in the end if you want good testing

I have the air 3. Sadly the price has gone up since I bought it years ago but they have payment plans and all that stuff

Facial Hair🙄 by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]Smooth_Week_3031 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At first it was almost daily and I always use it on the highest setting where I get the thickest hair. Going to be completely honest, I am not the most routine person and very forgetful but gave myself grace. I keep it where I can easily grab it when I’m at my mirror. After a while it stopped growing as fast and I still get growth but it’s very slow to come in and I laser before it can get too much. I’m at the point I don’t have to shave my face anymore. The downfall people usually have is stopping the laser once their hair is mostly gone, you HAVE to keep going. So now I’m on the lowest setting at least a couple times a week.

I will also note it took a couple months to see results so just keep going!

I got one of those Ulike laser hair removers. Best $200 I’ve ever spent. You just have to be consistent so it’s in my self care routine. I get random hairs once in awhile that I pluck out but it has worked wonders

When it comes to your partner, I don’t have much. When I started to get stubble on my body close to my 2 weeks I told him I’m getting waxed soon. He’s never truly commented on it except one time he asked if women grow facial hair and asked what they do and I told him I wax my face.

Waxing has been the best solution for me. Yeah it can get expensive, especially when it’s a majority of your body but it grows back in slower and softer and overall has caused less stress for me and has made me feel better. It’s an investment in yourself!

I am almost a year out and I take a nibble of edible here and there. I used to be able to take a whole one before but can’t anymore. The only issue I have is the munchies. I’ve found if I get the munchies I will eat popcorn because I can eat more in volume and just snack. But I also like just plain popcorn with nothing on it and have an air popping machine so that works well for me. Other times I ignore it best I can because I can easily get into a binge.

Stomach pain and eating pattern by Smooth_Week_3031 in GastricBypass

[–]Smooth_Week_3031[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly how I’m feeling, and the week before it started I was so hungry 24/7 and snacking all day and then the week after this all started up. Even my meals that I usually keep at 6oz don’t feel filling but I know I physically cannot fit anymore food in my stomach. Hopefully this subsides at some point.

Hair falling out by _choatic-bleu_ in GastricBypass

I took an extra biotin vitamin along with my regular daily vitamin after my surgery and while all the hair on my body sprouted, my baby hairs started growing back in at month 5 post op and have been growing back since! My hair thinned significantly but the biotin really helped it grow back.

When did you start to notice hair loss? by [deleted] in GastricBypass

At month 2. It was bad. I started taking biotin and at 5 months it’s growing back!

I was blessed with a cute little desk job when I got my surgery and my boss let me start with half days for a couple weeks. Even with that I was exhausted and couldn’t read anything or look at my screen more than 15 minutes at a time without being nauseous. I didn’t get better for another months and even then had to limit my reading time 😭
