Only thing I have lost all month long is gobs of hair!



Recommended Posts

I realize we all have stalls and most of us experience Hair loss, but it seems unfair to go through both at the same time. I feel like I will not lose anymore weight or ever reach Onederland.

I don't even mind the hair loss if I hadn't stopped losing weight. I've always had really thick hair. But it has been a month with no weight loss. A month!

I use a Multivitamin patch a day and supplement with Biotin for my hair.

Is fusion a Vitamin?

You can take every supplement under the sun and still have hair loss.

Stalls do get discouraging. When I get like that I look at what I've lost in the time frame that I've lost it in. Can I really say 70 lbs in 6 months is a stall? I don't think so and then realize my goal weight isn't going to happen over night.

What helped me with my Hair loss was I started taking powdered marine collagen which I added to a bottle of Water. That slowed my hair loss down considerably. Took about a month and half to see results.

I also started drinking a cup of bamboo tea (high in silica). That helped make my hair shiny and soft again and stopped the dryness and breakage I was having.

My hair started falling out about month six.

      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.
