POLL Does Everyone Lose Their Hair??
uperkma replied to KariK's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hi, I have lost about 25% also and I was a little cocerned .I called my doctor and he expalined to me that it was due to the all the weight and the fat that my body was getting rid of. He said there was nothing I could do about but it, that it would stop when my body gets back to normal . I am 4 moths post op. I am not happy about it, but I rather be thinner than fatter. hair will grow back eventually. I also read in a few places to take Biotin and to use Nioxin products. Good Luck to all. MAP -
Hi Everyone, I am little discouraged since i have not lost anymore weight since my last fill of 2cc's. The doctor told me it was time for another fill. I have lost a total of 16 lbs since banded on May 24 ,06. I know my band only holds 4cc's so hopefully this second fill will do the trick. Has this happened to anyone else? Also I don't really have any restriction after the first fill. HELP!! PLEASE!

Hi All, :o My name is Martha and I was banded on May 24th, I have lost about 13lbs and hoping to loose more. I was a little worried that I am able to eat anything and not feel full or get sick,thank GOD for that. But after reading a few replies to my other post I feel a little better. I just need to watch what I eat. Hope to chat with you all soon. Good Luck to everyone. Marthaurl=ttp://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/3;53;91;0;0/c/-14/t/-72/k/3197/weight.png

Hi desoteb, I was sore also but every day is better. Are you on Protein drinks also? Make sure you have those or you will feel weak. Try some hommade Soup that is what had and it worked fine for me,. Well don't wory in a few weeks you will feel like you have nothing inside you. I have lost 14 lbs but I am waiting for my first fill and then hopefully I will continue to lose more. ALso try holding a pillow against your stomach when you are laying down and trying to get up it takes some of the sting away. Well good luck and keep in touch. let me know how you make out. Martha

:help: Hi All, I was banded on May 24th and have lost 13lbs. I have not have a fill yet but think that I need one since I can eat almost everything. I have not gotten sick and am a little worried that I can eat what ever I want. Has this happened to any of you? I have a doctors appt on July 7th and I will make sure to inform my doc about this. Is this normal ? I want to loose weight not gain. Any replies are appreciated. Thanks

I am able to eat as little or as much as I want. But when I eat fast or dry food like pork I get that golf ball effect feeling.
