New date for sleeve surgery 2/23!



Recommended Posts

I was originally scheduled for surgery on 12/16 but postponed due to Covid cases escalating at the time. I was 4 days into my liquid diet when I got the call. On the positive side I was able to enjoy the holidays but ready to get this show on the road! I am having this useless lap band taken out at the same time. I got up to 315 and currently at 303, I am a 6 ft tall 63 yr old male. Has anyone had trouble with Hair loss? I am taking Biotin, Keratin, B1, propecia, and rogaine. I would like to lose about 100 pounds. I think 210-215 is a good weight for me. I am wondering how long it will take to lose 100 pounds. Also what Vitamins are you guys taking?

Congrats on getting your date! I’m almost a week out so can’t speak to Hair loss yet. I was preemptively taking Biotin with keratin but post surgery...no way can I take them. I have read that the double stress on your body from very low calories and surgery can cause the hair loss.
