Hi sleeve sister! I'm experiencing the same thing. I just got my hair trimmed up last week so it won't look so noticeable.

From what I have read and been told, there is nothing really we can do to stop the Hair loss but it should only go on for a few months. :blink: Try not to use freeze hair spray or pull your hair back. I found that it comes out faster when I do that.

I take Biotin (I think it's 5 mg) it won't stop the hair from coming out, but it helps with regrowth and I also started drinking a Protein drink every day to get 40 more grams and it seems to help some.

Best of luck to you!!!! - Tiffany

I started taking Biotin 5000 before surgery and my hair and nails are thick... But I also Shampoo and condition with Nioxin 8 cause I have highlights in my hair. Don't use a brush when your hair is wet, use a pick and if you put a dryer to your hair do it on a cool setting every now and then don't blast your head with high heat <like I was> LOL

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
