4 mons is about the time I started reaching my daily Protein goal and that's when my Hair loss stopped. Only saw it when I didn't reach the daily protein goal.

Mine started coming out around 2 months. It was really bad for about 2-3 months. It's still coming out, but has slowed way down...finally. I will be 6 months on Sunday July 28th. I have been reaching my Protein goal since early on, taking Biotin and all my Vitamins and still doing a daily shake.....it still came out, still is but like I said it has slowed way down. Thank god I had a head full of thick hair. I did cut off because the shedding was driving me nuts!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
