Could I please get some feedback on Hair loss post op? When did the hair loss start? How much hair was lost? Did you have a lot of hair before the surgery? Did you have to cover the hair loss through wigs, hair pieces, etc. How long did it take for your hair to grow back? Did it grow back as thick as it was before? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

Mine started at 2 1/2 3 month mark and it's finally pretty much stopped at 8 months. I don't have a ton of hair to start with there's a lot but thin strands. I did everything to try to prevent it from happening 10,000mg Biotin, Vitamins, coconut conditioning hair treatments blah,blah, blah! Nothing stops it from happening. There are a few lucky ones that don't shed. I had hair extension As you can see in my profile picture (clip ins) but they get old after awhile so I finally just cut it off and I LOVE it! I should have sucked it up and did it earlier! There's nothing grosser feeling that shedding wet hair on your skin during a shower. YUCK! Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones? Either way I'd do it 100x over, the benefits and way I look/feel now are better than any hair! Lucky for me I'm no Samson so I didn't lose any powers chopping it off :)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
