Biotin and protein are the key

Biotin helps tremendously. My hair was thinning 4 months post opt. I'm two and a half yrs post opt with very thick hair

This is one year post opt. I'm so excited I am scheduled to have tummy tuck and lift on March 18.

Here is one of me. This was taken one year post opt.

I have been taking biotin 5000mg 2 times a day - I am 7 months post opt as of the 4th. My hair is still coming out but not as much as it was in the 4th and 5th month.

I will be three months post opt on Oct 4. I have no regrets about the surgery. I feel awesome! I have been honest and shared with those around me that I had gastric sleeve. Initially, when I told people they were more hesitant that I was going to Mexico for the surgery than actually having the surgery. I prayed about every aspect of having the surgery, going to Mexico and family support. God is so awesome! My surgery was complete in 38 minutes. Within a few hrs post opt I was up walking around- talking with others in the hall- eating ice chips and no PAIN!! I asked my husband if he was sure that I had really had surgery other than my incisions - I felt great! I thank God for a supportive husband and finding a great surgeon to help me loose the weight that I have battled with all of my life. As time approaches you may feel more nervous- I did. But the morning of my surgery- I woke with a great peace within and ready to begin a new life fully trusting that my God was with me through it all!!! And HE still is!!! Sending prayers your way!!

I will be three months out on Oct 4th and Yes I do think that sometimes and then I suffer from it....lol. I am still adjusting. I know my brain has not caught up yet. I have more than a moment or two already..lol.

I had mine on July 4, 2012 and I am doing great! No complications everything was wonderful- total cost $5500

Thank you for sharing! I am two months out and so thankful that I went through this process as well. I feel so much better!! This site has been so helpful to me throughout the process of deciding to go through with the surgery and then post op. Thank you everyone!

Congratulations! It continues to get better...walk..walk..walk : )
