I dont see alot of African American women losing hair....i was banded in 2005 and sleeved in 2014 NEVER had any hair loss nor did the AA coworkers, family or friends who were weight loss patients....my gf she had alot of thinning ( superbad) and she is AA but she didnt take biotin didnt get her protein in and she is prob 4 years out with gastric and she is 100 lbs lighter but hardly any hair

Haaaaaaa!! Great answer!!

I was banded 2005 and revised to sleeve 2014....had it removed and revised on the same day...i was told that i had alot of scar tissue! No problems, no complications and I only took pain meds one day...good luck, im 5 mo out

Congrats!!

Hotttttt!!

My evaluation in 2014 was abt 30 min? The questions were abt my family, friends, God, suicide, fears and deaths and how i felt abt certain things...in 2005 my evaluation was just a 100 questions questionairre abt being obese, how i viewed obese people, how i felt abt food, suicidal thoughts, how i viewed smaller people

Enjoyed hearing abt your amazing honest story!! You look amazing!!

I noticed the stinking smell the first week but it didnt last but a week or two, its an odd smell and I thought something was wrong but I found out abt it here on. BARIATRICPAL

@a stoot I have never had any hair loss!! I wasbanded in 2005 and band to sleeve in 2014....no hairshedding no hair loss!! So there is hope, we are all diff so I cant really say if you will or not!! My hairis past my shoulders and thick for the past two years i have been natural and I only put heat on it occasionally...I wear my hair in a pony tail...i take msm pills and biotin 7500 mg every day i also get 60 plus protein everyday!! Good luck

I eat so liitle food also and would not be able to make over 60 a day...I love the shakes and have enjoyed drinking them for almost 10 years, first as a bandster now as a sleever...I eat abt 3-4 bites and Im full so i cant get the full serving of protein...i guess if you are able to get your numbers in food then good for you unfortunately i cant

I have been drinking them since 2005...i drank one a day for 5 days a week..i typically drink one for breakfast

Haaa welcome to the real worl of WLS!! Some people always want to know and some of us always want people to know!! I find it annoying!! I just say Im not sure or i dnt know the exact amount and if they dig deeper i just say Im really focused on being healthy and staying toned!

100 mile Challenge!! Im sorry I dont have ANYTHING to report out!! Week 2 no weight loss, no miles walked Good News im headed to work out now!!

I was banded in 2005.... No hair loss I was sleeved in 2014 No hair loss I use MSM pills and take 7500 mcg of biotin everyday, my hair is long and thick

Never heard of foamies... I was banded in 2005 and sleeved in 2014 With the sleeve i can eat anything except FRIED foods...it gives me dumping syndrome, which is fast heart rate, sweating, chills, severe stomach cramps and runs within 30 min of eating and last 30-60 min...happen twice so no fried/greasy food for me.... When i am full i usually burp if i try to keep eating i get a stomach ache...no vomitting, no stuck food, no acid reflux and i can lay down and eat

Has anyone felt like this from not taking their Vitamins? My god mother died and I have been so busy and emotional that I forgot to take them Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I feel like I can barely sit up! waiting on the nurse to call me back, I think its the absence of the Vitamins

I love it, I eat it raw in salads and also cooked.

Got in a size 12 skirt from 2 different stores Bra is getting toooo big I can see my collar bone forming
