No doubt your hitting a rough patch:( Hang in there. I too have lost alot of hair, and I had really pretty hair. I'm 61/2 months and it has slowed downed coming out. As far as sunken eyes, we are losing weight rapidly, I had bags and wrinkles all of a sudden and freaked out, but now at 61/2 months my skin is starting to look much better and I only have wrinkles when I don't get enough sleep:)

Hang in there it will start to improve and you shouldn't loae all your hair. Just get your protien in and lots of Water and Vitamins. In a few more months you'll kook and feel likw a whole new person! Good Luck:-)

sorry you are having such a rough time :(

its been a few days since you wrote this post

are you feeling a little bit better???

it is good to take Biotin like JP69 said - and yes things do improve ;)

have you talked to your doc/NUT about your eating situation???

how is your weight loss going???

can't refer to your ticker or profile since you don't have one

hint hint!!!! ;)

keep plugging away (easier said than done) :)

good luck

      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.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
