My hair comes out by handfuls too luckily I have very thick hair to begin with so I hope it doesn't get too bad ...I remember this also happened with the lapband for a while then just stopped falling out one day. ..I'm also getting acne which SUCKS ! I haven't had acne in years lol hope that doesn't last long either but as long as the weight keeps coming off I'll deal with acne and some hair falling out lol

I read that Silica Complex by Puritans Pride really works?? Here is the link for the article I read. Actually the whole website has some good infor for post gastric bypass.

I think u are lucky mine is payback I guess for never having any when I was a teen. I def don't think u are behind u are doing too great!!

I really think I am able to eat more than I should be. I had a bit of steak, some veggies, 2 small pieces of sushi and a bite of rice. I shouldn't be able to eat this much at less than 4 mo out!! I do miss those days I could barely handle a tbsp or 2!!! This totally scares me! I've gotta be able to reign this in cause I'm scared!

Perhaps you should start measuring again to get a more specific idea of exactly how much you really are eating. I quit for a while and then restarted only to discover I was WAY overestimating my Protein serving sizes but was fairly close on other foods. So I wasn't getting as much protein or as many calories as I thought. Sigh. This can be a pain in the butt!

I'm seriously gonna have to do something. I was out at a hibachi place and I was shocked when I realized what I wolfed down. I'm not even sick really. Had a bit of the foamies. Crazy and scary. I feel embarrassed and ashamed!!

Oh I'm happy with the loss. Hey I would of never lost 14 in two weeks then another 80 in four months on my own. I Think have at least five pounds of compaction in me! I would give anything for sum runs
