Yep, the six month post op hair falling out is normal. It will come back.

My hair fell out and the texture changed. I tried Vitamins Biotin etc... They did not work for me. I had to wait it out.

(Not plugging a products)

The only exception I found that has helped my hair texture was Hask argan oil repair shine oil vial. I use it at night from root to tip. Shampoo and condition as normal in the morning. Somedays I put a small amount in my hair in the morning.

Another that I use is nioxin level 4 shampoo for noticeably thinning hair.

Yes my hair started falling out around month 3. I didn't take any supplements because I figured it would happen regardless and I knew it would grow back. The Hair loss has slowed considerably now that I am near month 9 and my hair is growing back. I was blessed with thick hair so it hasn't been noticeable to other people.

You look fabulous! Look at you!! I think it is a fair trade off to lose hair ( which will grow back ) for looking this gorgeous! Well done!

      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.
