My hair is already super thin on top because of PCOS. In pre op stage for gastric bypass. I am taking 10,000 mcg biotin. I have been taking it for three months already. I have been consuming 125-130 grams of protein every day. I have lost 13 lbs so far. I am very worried about hair loss!
I am 4 weeks post op (gastric sleeve) and I already am starting to get a rumble of hunger. But maybe it’s just thirst, I drink and it receives the rumble for a short time, but not for log. I don’t really have much of an appetite though. Would you consider this head hunger?
I read that people who diet often have a lower metabolic rate than people who have never dieted. Does WLS correct the lowered metobolic rate and are they then "regular" metabolic weight people?
You really shouldn't eat anything out of the can. Too much sodium. I bought a small bag of black beans. It just takes a little (a lot) longer for them to cook, but, I can control the sodium. (just my 2 cents)
I am considering bariatric surgery. What does this do for PCOS patients? I am 35 weigh 243 at 5’5. Been trying to lose weight since I was 19 and ballooned. I’m at my highest weight including during pregnancy 10 years ago. I have GERD and lactose intolerance issues which I didn’t have when I was a good size in childhood. I’m afraid if I have surgery that my hunger will continue to be out of wack... I’m always feeling hungry and my energy really low like it is now. Does surgery help with these issues? What issues or things to think about for people with PCOS?
Im trying to get approved for Bariatric surgery. I just had a hysterectomy in February. Does that have any effect on rather I do or don’t get approved or just having Bariactric surgery alone?
Hi Dr. Matthew Weiner, it’s been now 14 years since I had my Gastrin Y R surgery. I’m now gaining my weight back. I no longer could see my feet when I look down. My height is 5,0 my weight now is at 160.. which I used to be 120 my ideal weight. Would I be able to redo the same surgery again???? And if yes what weight do I need to be to get the surgery? Please can you help me!!!! I’m very depressed. I don’t want to climb back to my old weight of 245 pounds. 😪
Thank you for all your great info. I appreciate your outlook on nuts, seeds and beans. I got scolded by my nutritionist for eating almonds and sunflower seeds because they were too "fattening"....I just listened to her and then went home and ate more almonds..lol….sometimes the nutritionists know nothing about nutrition. They just push meat on me.
So would you recommend reaching your goal weight before getting pregnant? I am one year post op and about 15 pounds away from where I'd like to be but I also may want another baby
Your advice has been invaluable following my Gastric Bypass 2 years ago. You are the best 👍
Glad it helps

Hello doctor
Which is the best gastric bypass.
I had VSG in May this year with a local surgeon in Colorado. I felt hunger right away and still get hungry at almost 7 months out.
You may want to watch my video on head hunger

When you mention beans do they have to be fresh or can you eat beans in the can also?
You really shouldn't eat anything out of the can. Too much sodium. I bought a small bag of black beans. It just takes a little (a lot) longer for them to cook, but, I can control the sodium. (just my 2 cents)

How much weight are you suppose to lose a week after RNY gastric bypass surgery?
It's all over the map - often times there's fluid retention from the IV fluids that skews your weight.

Can’t just redo a gastric bypass, check out my course on weight regain at poundofcureweightloss.com, there’s also info on revisions there
Thx

I love sunflower seeds - can eat a whole bag in one sitting. So my nutritionist just suggested that I eat smaller servings each day.
