Daniels 3 Posted May 30, 2013 I had at one time very thick hair. Its almost all gone:( my hair falls out ALL the time. I had the sleeve in October and have lost 55 pounds! Super exciting but the Hair loss is very upsetting. Anyone else loosing hair? Any suggestions? Help!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thinathart 197 Posted May 30, 2013 I was also sleeved in October and I'm losing hair like crazy. Some days are worse than others. My hair stylist said she can "barely" tell...I think she was being nice. I can really tell. Good news is, others on this board have said it slows down in months 7-9. I sure hope so!

kari61 128 Posted May 30, 2013 Are you taking Biotin? I know there are shampoos that are suppose to help with Hair growth, ie: F.A.S.T. or Garlic Shampoo (smells delicious don't worry) and I think the other one is called Biotene or something, you can look into..I'm 8 weeks out, haven't started losing too much yet but I'm very worried about it so I started using this stuff now..good luck..

jmiller2013 6 Posted May 30, 2013 My internist says there is no scientific evidence that Biotin does anything. Up your Protein.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunnymyway 17 Posted May 30, 2013 I'm just three months out and its alarming how much hair I'm losing. Scary. My Doc said it's cause our bodies think we're starving. She promised I won't go bald and said months 3-6 are the worst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emilee68 46 Posted May 31, 2013 :"""( I'm loosing mine too. I have fine hair but alot of it. It at least I did before the Hair loss started. It's been going on about 2 weeks now. I wanna cry every day. My hair is about to the middle of my back and it grows really slow so I really don't wanna have to cut it...but I've heard that's the best thing to do....should I??

aquitenonnymouse 206 Posted May 31, 2013 Yup. You're eating similarly to an anorexic. Our bodies are in survival mode. I've heard that it gets better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sweetcarol238 181 Posted May 31, 2013 I also had mine in October. Been falling out like crazy for 3 months now. Down over 125 pounds and 10 more to go. I hope it stabilizes once I hit maintenance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jordo29 17 Posted May 31, 2013 You may not be getting enough Protein. My Mom's friend had the same thing happen and that's what her doctor told her. DRINK MORE Protein Shakes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
