Obviously I am thrilled! No Hair loss no problems. I still take my Bariatric Advantage Vitamin crystals every day, and have added booting, and collogen to my daily Vitamins. Couldn't't be happier! Now for maintaining this weight. If I can do it anyone can. I had my surgery in Marinara del Ray. With Dr. Korman. He is the best! :-)

Really jealous that you've managed to skip Hair loss. Happy for you, but jealous none the less. I really had hoped I'd be able to do the same, but as I sit here nearly bald on the top of my head, that has certainly not been the case. I have not heard of the Vitamin crystals or about taking collagen. Going to have to look into both. What type of collagen are you taking and is that for hair loss or skin elasticity? Thanks!

I take "Bariatric advantage berry crystals", Biotin, collgon (the one for skin. Biotin is for hair and nails. I take a lot of Vitamins and eat a lot of Protein. I actually do not exercise very much do to a back injury. Now that I'm able to see...I know that weight loss is 90% diet. Simple as that. We need to feed our perfect machines. I do cheat I just don't eat a lot of it. :-)

Congrats on your success! I take Biotin also find I haven't had any hairloss. I want to stay taking the collagen also but I don't know what brand to take. Which one do you use? And have you seen any results from it?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
