I had hair loss. Significant for me to notice but not for anyone else to notice. I did nothing about it as I heard so many mixed reviews on products. It eventually stopped. It was only hair and I didn't stress much. Small price to pay

Small price to pay indeed. :-) If anyone told me I would lose weight if I shaved my head bald, I wouldn't have even hesitated. I'd have said "Hand me the clippers". :-) :-) :-)

I'm thinning out more up front right now. I had nice lux hair for years and now it's more like straw and getting thin but as much as I don't like it I can deal with it. I'm trying to remember the greater goal and I can always get a wig.

My hair stylish said its growing back & now I'm able to do styles unlike before. I'm just used to my darn hat so I'm in hiding but my hair is fine & healthy. I went back to black hair to cover the grays Lolz I figure less damage to my roots.

I'm 3 months post op and mine started to shed about 4 weeks ago. My hair is about 1/2 as thick now. I take all my vitamins' date=' eat 75 to 100 grams of Protein a day and drink about 75 ounces. My hair seems to be slowing down.

I think my Hair loss is the last thing I should worry about tho. Remember that this is only temporary. I'm actually having fun wearing my clip in weave to get back the fullness and add a little length to the back.

If you can't achieve it.. weave it![/quote']

How are you getting in all of uour Protein?

Mine is awful. As a hairstylist myself it freaks me out because its more than I've ever seen any of my clients lose. I have thick hair to begin with, so I didn't think it would be that big of a deal,

But it's all at the scalp that I notice it. This handful is after one shower.

      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.

      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.
