emigirl 9 Posted February 10, 2013 I was banded on October 12, 2012 and have lost 35 pounds so far. I have only had 2 band fills with a total of 3cc in my band. My mother was banded several years ago. While I haven't experienced any Hair loss. She did, but her hair is growing back thicker now than ever. She takes Bariatrics Vitamins and Biotin. I'm glad to have found all you fellow October 2012 bandsters! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Msbritt 45 Posted February 10, 2013 I haven't started to lose any hair yet. I have started to take optisource chewable vitamins for post bariatric surgery the past 3 days and have lost 3.4 pounds. I'm taking that along with calcium citrate and Biotin daily. I have increased my Water intake. 1 destynee1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banderina 69 Posted February 10, 2013 Ive been losing since mid december..banded 10.23..its been almost 8 weeks and still losing hair... its amazing how everyone reacts different. Ive taken all the right Protein and Vitamins including Biotin and Iron. Still happened. The general concensus is it will stop and come back. Just when and how much is the nagging question.
