Man thanks for the tips! I am almost 8 weeks out and I am losing more hair than normal. I think it is due to hormones though. I am really worried about Hair loss at 4 months . Also, my skin has become really dry too! Strange. I still struggle to get all my fluids in and that doesn't help.

You're welcome!! ???? my hair is still not back at 100% but that's my fault as time has gone by I'm not super good as I was to get all my 90mg of daily intake but I feel I am with food. But needs to stay on better track of all my Vitamins so went and bought those containers for the week, bought 2 one for home, keep by bed and 2nd for work to take my Vitamins after I've eaten Breakfast. I fill it up on Sunday's. Try it, make sure to TRY to remember to bring home the one at work on Fridays to take back Monday's.

Here are pics of the Nioxin Shampoo I'm using. I had no idea this would actually come in handy for me as I was originally buying for my son because he has super dry skin and dandruff. One day on Dr Oz and researching web for hair loss, Zinc was brought up continuously and as I was showering and looked up only to realize my sons Nioxin shampoo read Zinc LOL!! I have to admit it's feels minty and tingly and super cool in scalp, during summer it's not so bad bad now during Winter it feels cold.

What I do, is start my showers with washing my hair1st with my color treated shampoo since I added highlights in the summer and now lowlights during winter.

Then I shampoo with the Nioxin and leave on my scalp throughout my entire shower time, rinse at end and condition for just another few minutes. I find there conditioner doesn't help my hair much because I have color. So I add an extra slab of my biologe conditioning mask and it leaves my har silky. But most importantly us to get the shampoo w/zinc into scalp for a bit.

Also get your oils intakes in with all Water and Protein daily quota.

For dry body skin I've been using Walgreen's Studio 35 Beauty brand called moisture recovery lotion plain or cocoa butter. It's inexpensive and keeps my skin moist and soft. Before bed I pour on under my arm, especially where our lose skin (wings) area is, around hips, tummy and everywhere else. It has helped with stretch marks along with the Vitamin e oil. The brand I mentioned is also eatable if you need Vitamin e, you can place drops in your drinks/shares etc.. Highly smother all over face.

When I wash face in the morning I pour on another moisturizer from Walgreen called Merlot made with grape seed oils and wine, Google it. No one believed in this product but Walgreen's took a risk and started at cost of $10 but now up to $16 to $20. I usually buy when on sale as well.

Let me take a pic of those to post.

The Nioxin Shampoo mentioned 3 steps does come in a combo with shampoo, condition and leave in formula, to save cost I only buy the shampoo. You can probably find on-line as mentioned or your nearby beauty supply store?

Or ask your hair stylist if she can purchase for you.

It's a small bottle, as in my pic and shampoo alone could cost from $15 to $18. Bottle goes a long way though, as you only need a small drop size of dime, rub directly into scalp and it will bubble up for remainder of hair. I shampoo my hair every other day or try to stretch out as far as 3 days even if I have to put up in pony tail. ???? as I prefer to have hair down during cold season

You are awesome! I can't thank you enough. I will get some of that stuff!! I appreciate the time you took to help me out. Thanks!!!

YW!! That's what we're here for!! ????

These are the Vitamins I'm currently taking, however please note I'm 2 yrs out.

****Please make sure you check with your doctor and have them check your lab work and results as to what bit and you're low on.

Always request a copy of your lab results and Doctor reports when you visit them. Keep in file and let your family know where to find. Place note date you fasted, lab visit date/time, Doctor follow-up visit date, so your family had available in case of emergency.

I forgot to mention this Omega fish oil in liquid form with d3 Vitamin.

Highly recommend. It first taste like fish at all, it's like drinking a huge lemon peel drop. Well worth it, I drink when I just don't get my oils or fish intake in for the week.

I'm also enjoying the new gummy vitamins, not recommend but now that 2 yrs out, my stomach digest them well and I still make sure to chew thoroughly. I'm not pregnant (I'm 49 yrs old ????) LOL!, but find that the pre-natals make me feel better.

Let me know if you have any questions. Im not on here all the time so if you'd like, inbox me a private email and I send you mine and I will reply sooner

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!!

Stay hydrated! ????

I haven't had my surgery yet....it's supposed to be sometime in May. However, I do have some experience with hair loss related to weight loss. Several years ago I was on the Medifast diet. I lost a considerable amount of weight quickly, but a side effect was Hair loss. Once my weight stabilized the hair loss stopped and new hair grew back.....so I don't think hair loss is really caused by the surgery but more by the fast weight loss......just my guess of course.
