scaredoftheunknown 95 Posted December 6, 2012 I'm kind of nervous for tomorrows appointment. I have to admit I have been bad, I haven't been taking all my Vitamins nor have I been eating or drinking all my Protein. I can't even get all my Water in. Ugh! Wish me luck.

scaredoftheunknown 95 Posted December 6, 2012 Well I went to my 3 month appointment and I feel it was a waste of my 2 hours. There was a large group of people and the nutritionist went over everything we had discussed pre-op. Didn't have blood work until 6 months post op. Ugh! Pretty upset I was hoping I get some help with my eating options but now I have to call to set up an appointment with them. I think I've mentioned this before but I really don't like the nutritionist that I was assigned. If I get her I will request for a different one. Hope everyone is well.

kparker0501 88 Posted December 7, 2012 LET THE hair FALLING OUT BEGIN!!! OMG, i noticed it a little here and there at first and then this week a little more. This morning I could not believe how much I pulled out while shampooing/conditioning. I am pretty convinced its from a lack of Protein. I am going to up the protein as of today and hope I can reverse some of the damage. Anyone else?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenfamily004 172 Posted December 7, 2012 Parker how much Protein do you get a day and how far out are you? I'm watching everyday for it to start. I'll be 3 months on the 12th. I've mostly it's happening when shampooing. I started just softly rubbing the Shampoo and conditioner in without scrubbing my scalp. Not sure if it'll help me or not. I'm so not looking forward to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
