No she's talking about hair loss- doesn't matter how much I work out and lift weights. Plastic surgeon said massive weight loss=excess skin. Regardless of whether u loose it from diet and exercise or wls, skin is skin :(

3 month post op. hair is falling out by the fistfuls. Am now 4 monypths and have been collecting the hair to get a sense. I now filled up a 1 gallon bag of hair, also weight lifting has helped. Got rid of some flab and crested tightness

What did your hair look like when you were loosing it? Did you have obvious bald spots, were you able to hide it?? Did you cut it short or put it up to style?

Does Hair loss happen to everyone, or is there something I can do to prevent it?
