Nearly 3 weeks post op . Although I’m getting fitter and progressing well , my face is looking very pale and despite outside walks shows no sign of improvement. Any advise ?
Hi Quarry,It might take time to start looking a better colour.I was an interesting shade of whitish grey for some weeks.I lost a lot of weight in the face as well as the body.I wouldn’t worry as long as you are progressing well your colour should return.I looked like I had been dug up so was very pleased when the weight went back on.Love Jane xx
I would definitely agree about the vitamins.
For best results pick sustained release Vitamin C, and a multivit/ mineral that does NOT have Zinc Oxide as it's Zinc ingredient.
[Should be Zinc citrate/gluconate/picolinate/amino acid chelate, to be capable of being absorbed by your gut].
Always check with a pharmacist you trust.
If you can afford it organic food home delivery might be ideal, saving you shopping trips or bothering others. I am very pleased with the company we have used for years. Considering the delivery is included I think it's very fair value.
