Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Protein Shakes I am 3 months post op and am losing a great deal of hair. I am taking in between 92-100 gr. of protein a day an my nutritionist thinks that for me it is not enough. She would like to see me add another scoop of Isopure (25 gr.) somewhere in my day. Right now I am doing a shake in the morning with 2 scoops isopure vanilla, 3 tsp. of cocoa powder, 1tsp. instant expresso powder, ice and 1/2c milk. I am soooo full after that but I make myself eat my other meals. Any suggestions on variations for shakes? I love that one that I make but am getting a little bored. I had my first post op labs drawn on Friday so I will hear next week what all of my levels are.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    | i dont think increasing your protein from where you are is going to stop the hair loss. ITS a symptom of rapid weight loss not really the surgery. YOU wont go totally bald but will have lots of thinning. I lost alot in that phase and for all the months i was looseing. I did find takeing biotin gave me very healthy new growth and loved it when the peach fuzzies were sprouting. hang in there its a difficult phase! hugs

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I make one with 2 cups of crushed ice; one Light & Fit Mixed Berry Smoothie; a scoop of vanilla protein and usually a scoop more fresh blueberries (if I feel like extra fruit) but its not necessary. Or you can substitute really any fruit type lowfat yogurt; like banana & strawberries. Its real good. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Thanks for all the replies. I am taking Super- Biotin already that I purchased at Vitamin World. What is the Biotin Shampoo? I bought the Nioxin shampoo but it reallt dries my hair.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I picked up the Biotene H-24 shampoo and conditioner from Vitamin Shoppe. The smell is really clean and it lathers pretty good. I havent ran into it drying my hair out as of yet. I use a deep conditioning 2 times a week though. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I just use the Vanilla protein powder I got at Target. Its 23grams -- not sure what type? But it seems fine so long as I use a blender. I tried to use a shaker once -- forget it, it just doesn't blend into the drink and then you get those awful chunks! |
