On the contrary, its getting worse for me! I think the Biotin is hitting entirely the wrong targets! LOL But its not too bad - I just have a teeny tiny bit of hair on my upper lip that I have started to get rid of every month.

I have chin hair that I have to pluck and its a pain in my butt... Hmmm I wld think the opposite. When I start losing more weight, I hope I dont get anymore.

Part of being an obese woman is too many hormones that could cause more hair growth so theoretically it should get better once we lose significantly. Theoretically. LOL

And this is why I am afraid to take Biotin. I am already hairy and don't want to end up looking like Chewbacca. The Biotin thickens and grows hair, period, doesn't matter where it is! LOL

LOL true! But the hairfall creeped me out and I had to take Biotin to stop becoming bald or something...

Hi

The Biotin had definitely made a difference in all my bod hair eccept my head.We have just joked about this a few days ago as my head hair is a third less now and still falling out but boy do I have a lot of hair everywhere else (never use to be like this)

      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. 🤞
