I also use this product and love it. As for the hair loss, I have noticed that I don't have that much hair loss after the initial loss that i had around the 4 month post surgery mark. From what I've heard from my hairdresser and others, this seems to happen frequently after any kind of surgery. After a couple of months it went back to normal for which I am very grateful! My hairdresser said it even happened to her 17 year old daughter after major surgery. So hang in there and hopefully it will work itself out.

Congratulations on your weight loss!! That's amazing! And thanks for the encouraging words on hair loss. I will definitely try the QVC product; it's funny, i have been doing that to my scalp with an eye shadow that works pretty well, but i'm sure the other kind will be better. it's good to know that it will ease up in the future, i hope!! i will start upping my protein and i am doing biotin 3 times a day.

I am also 4 months from surgery and this hair loss is really scaring me. Every time i wash my hair, there is a huge clump of hair in the shower, and more comes out when i comb it. I wish more people that are 1-2 years from surgery would talk about this issue! I use nioxin and i don't really know if it's helping but it does make my hair look fuller. more info would be helpful!

How are the banded Notorious Novembers???
amw replied to mljalways's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi all My surgery was on Nov 6th and i'm doing ok today. After coming home from the hospital i was having terrible pains in my left shoulder and neck. i was feeling very nauseas and really didn't feel like eating. Yesterday, i spent the day out doing errands etc. and am feeling better. For awhile there, i was getting weepy and regretting that i had the surgery! I'm feeling better about it now, and reading what other people say helps a lot. I know that mostly everything will pass after time.
