Need your opinion!!!!

I'm now 4 months out and starting to have hair loss!!!! I will say shedding sucks, but I've lost a total of 82 lbs and have absolutely no regrets!!

So for those of you who have experienced some Hair loss, have you colored your hair??? And if so, did you find yourself losing more hair afterwards?? Also, how long did you have hair loss?

I have a hair appointment on Wednesday morning and I am debating on having my hair colored too.

Thanks for all your help!!!!

I avoided it because during my Hair loss stage, my hair was super fragile. I had lots of breakage as well, not just the typically falling out, and even though my hair was gorgeous pre-op, it looked, felt pretty horrible through the shedding period, and took a couple of months to recuperate. I did chop off, and heavy highlight it right when the shedding started, and then didn't touch for 4 months until I had decent regrowth coming in. That was just my experience.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
