Just continue following the instructions your bariatric team gave you and it will happen. My Hair loss started at about 5 months and continued for about 3 months. Luckily, I had a lot of hair to start with.

how long have you been stuck at 200? I've had stalls last as long as a month. Just stick to your program and your weight loss should start up again.

I had very little Hair loss, fortunately. It started at about five months out and lasted maybe three months. I didn't really notice it other than some extra strands in my comb - so I'm sure no one else did.

Stalls are a natural part of the weight loss process. Hang in there. Keep doing all the things you're supposed to be doing like eating Protein, getting in your Water, and maybe get some walking in.

Love the new hair! I know it may be to hide the loss but it suits you. And you look great. The stall will break. Don't worry.

For about three weeks. I am working on the Protein and trying to be very mindful of everything I eat. Hopefully it will break

I've been lax on my protein and water, working on that since yesterday to be more conscious of the details.

      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.
