Topic: RE: Failed

Any thoughts about failing post rny? I initially lost weight and unfortunately have returned to presurgery habits and feel like I failed. Looking for feedback from others who've had rny

Topic: RE: Failed

You literally brought me to tears- I haven't been able to put a positive spin on this. The underlying issue is unresolved/ unaddressed trauma. But at my age, I don't even know where to begin. I work in healthcare and feel like I won't have privacy despite hippa. thank you for your kind words of encouragement

Topic: RE: Ferritin / Iron / Hemoglobin Levels

I see a lot of post bariatric surgery patients come in for iron. It can be strictly due to lack of absorption and can be lifelong

Topic: RE: Failed

I am just over two years out and have failed. I am down 70 pounds and have no self control or self confidence. I feel like I have never addressed the "why" I overeat and still don't know how to address this. Any advice ? Self control has not worked. I am ready to quit trying

Topic: RE: Multivitamin

Hi there- I am two years out and take bariatric fusion with iron daily. I have now had several incidents of flushing and itching after taking my vitamin. It's not every time. I have read about niacin flushing and wonder if anyone else has had this and what vitamins you take instead. I can't do chewable- they make me gag.

Thank you!!!

Topic: RE: Skin

Does anyone else have issues with loose skin? I feel like I am wearing extra layers of clothing and my face looks like it's melting. I know I am healthier and that's important but I am uncomfortable in my own skin

Topic: RE: New food intolerances

I used an at home kit from a company called everlywell. It tests intolerance IGg ( not allergy IGe) to try to identify causation of symptoms. It's a fingerpick blood test, got answers in three days

Topic: RE: New food intolerances

Have developed some gi issues (sensitivities and flatulence) and decided to do one of those at home intolerance tests. I am intolerant to 30 foods!!! The list excludes dairy and soy so I am looking for recommendations for protein supplements

thank you

You can only start where you are. I was at my highest weight at time of surgery. Just know that you are making a decision to choose your health.

Topic: RE: Gall bladder

Mine has to come out because I have had three significant attacks but also about six weeks of low grade nausea and some pain. Also my liver enzymes and alk phos are elevated so something's mad in there. I understand the reasoning behind doing it but I don't want to

Topic: RE: Sugar

Any idea why I want sugar? If I overdo it I get sick. The first few months I didn't crave it but now I'm struggling. I appreciate your thoughts

Topic: RE: Hair loss

For those of you who lost hair, how long did it go on? Did you lose a lot? I am four months out and have been losing hair for about a month- it's manageable but my hair was thin to begin with so I am getting nervous. I am getting 80+ grams of protein and faithfully taking my vitamins. I appreciate your thoughts
