Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

It has Begun :(. My poor hair!



Recommended Posts

I knew it was coming, but was secretly hoping I would skip shedding my limited hair supply...not that lucky...hair is falling out like crazy!

My problem is I have completely white hair under all that brown color and I need to do my roots (dark hair looks MUCH thicker than the Snow White nature has blessed me with)

Any one continue to color once your hair started thinning? How did it go? Any coloring products that may work better than others?

Its OK! I had so many things going on that when mine first started I did not even notice, then came the day that I lost so much hair! I ran my hand through it in the shower and it looked like I had snatched someone bald in a cat fight. I sat in the shower and cried.

Then I went short - hair that is and I asked myself "who can give me a short cut, while this passes, that is used to cutting balding heads - SPORTS CLIPS!!!"

lol - no kidding, they deal with men balding all the time, go in and see what they can suggest by way of a cut until it grows back in - and it will grow back in!!! concentrate on fruits and veggies and mindful Protein and Water and you will get it back. My hair is actually the thickest now that it has been in 15 years or so (as the head shrinks, your hair growing back will look a bit thicker).

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
