My multi Vitamin has about 800mcg, but I also take a Biotin supplement daily that has 10,000 mcg. . .so I guess about 10,800 mcg.

5 mg daily, I started after much Hair loss, about 9 mos after surgery. Now my hair is thick & grown back. You can find teensy easy capsules for little $ at swansonvitamins.com. They have great products at lower prices.

Where does everyone get their Biotin? Are you all taking chewable or gummies?

I got mine through Swanson Vitamins online. Chewable.

Once hair has thinned quite a bit how long does it take to come back. I have been taking Biotin, but just recently started taking at a higher dose. I guess I wasn't taking enough. I also increased my Protein

I take 5000 too. They are lozenges so I can suck on them. Got them at Whole Foods. Solaray I think is the brand.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
