I might be imagining things, but...

I feel like my hair and nails are growing faster than they did before the surgery. Perhaps I've lost my mind, but does anyone else feel like this?

My hair and nails are doing quite well too. I'm not sure if it's any different than before, as I have always been blesses with great hair and nails, but I was expecting issues, but yay! none!! Awesome and congrats on your journey! :)

I'm pretty sure its the protein! and possibly with a little help from the Vitamins (for example, prenatal vitamins make your hair and nails grow as well and my friend can't swallow pills so instead she takes 2 Flinstones vitamins...just like me!)

I wish that was the case for me. I delt with quite a bit of hairloss in the first year and that grew back, but my hair still isn't back to the health it used to be. My nails are so bad! I have been taking Biotin and vits. for over 2 years now and I really don't think they have helped at all. For my entire adult life I have had the greatest fingernails. I have grown them long and strong and never needed fake nails. I've even gone and had the fingernail places airbrish designs on them just for fun. Now, after being banded, my nails suck! They split and break and are just not strong anymore :(

I have taken Bariatric Advantage Vitamins pretty much from day 1 and I have never had problems with my nails or thinning hair. Also make sure to get your recommended amount of Protein each day.
