I take a bariatric Multivitamin and hair, skin & nails Vitamins. O don't think it helps. I'm also losing hair rapidly. I have plenty of hair, but still worried.

Im also 4.5 months out. I can feel short stubby hairs all over in my scalp coming in, so maybe that is a good sign it will be growing back soon.

Good luck!

I'm at 4mos PO sleeve. I have noticed my hair is falling like 20 times more than at the beginning. Is there an additional Vitamin for it? I take 1 Bariatric Advantage capsule a day, thank you!

My nutritionist strongly suggested getting as close to your Protein requirement as you can to prevent or decrease Hair loss. I have not lost any hair at all. I know everyone is different, just trying to help.

I don't know if there's much you can do about other than keep on top of your Protein and Vitamins so it doesn't get any worse than it would be otherwise. Just know it's temporary and it'll grow back...

Hmmn I seem to practically live at Wal-Mart so I'll try finding this Shampoo called Bask. I started out a red- head and science says we have the fewest hairs per square inch in the first place, Tomkitten was nagging me to have my hair cut when he goes to Great Clips, probably this week. Why bother? I have kept it in pixie since this all started And I doubt,it's worth a financial outlay! Not bald but sure not thick either.👸

      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.
