Hi so Im four months post op, and im losing hair like crazy, i think i lose anywhere from 200 to 500 strands a day... I started taking protein and biotin but the massive hair has me beyond depressed. Its all i think and i cry about day and night.... I hope it stops soon

Hi, Everyone So I had my Sleeve done on November 1 2010 and the morning of my Surgery I weighed 263 and today I'm at 212, so 51 in 31/2 months is amazing, but I'm paying a big Price for it. My hair is falling out like crazy, Its coming out in CLUMP (sometimes) i think I easily lose anywhere from 200 to 400 strands a day, I'm afraid to comb my hair, wash my hair I put a wrap on my head before i go to sleep. i used to have thick long beautiful hair and NOW there thinning out faster then I'm losing my weight. I love the weight loss, but I'm paying a big price for it, all I seem to be doing lately is crying day and night. and It doesn't help that throughout the day I only take One Multivitamin cause anything else makes me throw up, even if i take 2 multi- Vitamin at the same time, in less then 10 minutes after taking it I throw. idk why this is happening. Every time I try to make an Appt with the Dr. he is either away on Vacation or his schedule is full, it schedule didn't seem to full prior to my Surgery. does anyone know of a multivitamin that is strong enough where I only have to take one through out the day PLZ someone tell me that this hair loss is going to STOP and I will have my hair grow back, if there light at the end of the tunnel I diffidently don't see it. for a Month i had stop drinking Protein shake because I was getting sick of it, but I was still eating grilled chicken, tune,salmon maybe it was enough protein idk but this is crazy. I feel like I'm going to go into Depression if my hair doesn't stop falling. I NEED SOME ONE TO TELL ME THAT ITS GOING TO BE OKAY....

Thanks Everyone, I try not to Stress myself but every time i look at my coat or pillow, my tears automatically come out.... Tomorrow I'm going to the GNC to get biotin, from all of the post's, posted BIOTIN is the key factor, I really to hope the hair loss stops and my New hair grow's back.................. I cant tell you how much your support and words of advice mean to me.... its my only hope to get through this.... thanks a lot!!!!!!!! Zuby

Hi, So I'm six days out of my surgery... i had it on Monday and was discharged from the hospital Wednesday afternoon. So far its been a struggle to drink all of my protein shake and swallow the my multi vitamins its to many pills and its becoming overwhelming. Im almost regretting having the surgery, and I really dont want to feel that way!!!!!!!!! Thanks Zuby

Hi everyone!!!! so i had my surgery on November 1st and i weighed 263 and currently weigh 242 so I lost 21lbs.... everyday I'm eat something I'm not suppose like tuna sandwich or two bites of a donut or coffee like with sugar... and for the past week ive been at the same weight!!!! I'm worried that my stupid habit's of having a bite hear and there have stalled my weight loss, but how can one bite really stop me from losing weight.... has this ever happened to anyone.... Thanks Zuby

my 1st two week being on liquid diet I was doing okay. but on November 15 I was able to move to soft pureed food. and i started by eating tuna and since that went down fine the next day i took a bite from my sister tuna fish sandwich and that went down okay. and for a moment I lost my self i would take a sip from my mom's coffee or a bite from my brother donut!!! I was mourning food like crazy!!!! just seeing food on commercial would make my mouth water and it still does. I am almost 3weeks out and for the most part regret having the surgery.... I'm mad at myself for not having more control or rather self control.... for the last six months all I could think about was having this surgery, wearing nice clothing going up the stairs and not going out of breath and actually having a relationship where I didn't feel so insecure all the time. and now all I could think about is wanting my Old stomach back!!!! I live with my parents and two younger sibling and when i see them eat all those food that I loved to eat I cant help but CRY.. for the last 4 days Ive been back on my restricted diet but its incredibly hard, because before my diet I never had any type of fish other then tuna and even now I don't like any other fish and i don't like eggs or ricotta cheese so eating tuna and chicken everyday for the next two weeks its feels really overwhelming not to mention the awful protein shake from isopure. before November 1st I was an over weight person but a happy person, I just don't want to feel miserable and unhappy all the time!!!!!

Thank!!! im trying very hard to stay on my diet but ,y self control is really low at this point!!!! i cant understand why!!! but for the last few days Ive been on a protein shake and tuna diet!!! and hopefully i can remain in that direction.... its really tough didn't think it would be this difficult. I guess food really was a major part in my life!!!!!!!!
