LOSING MY HAIR

HEY GOOD FRIDAY TO YOU ALL. I AM 14 WEEKS OUT AND STARTING TO LOSE MY HAIR. I HAVE VERY THICK HAIR AND YOU CANT TELL TO SEE IT BUT I CAN TELL WHEN I BRU**** AND WA**** LOTS AND LOTS OF HAIR. I KNOW THAT USUALLY GOES WITH THE TERRITORY. JUST THOUGHT I WOULD POST. LATER ALL DENISE 250/206/150

Hi Denise, I am so sorry you are losing your hair. I dread that part, I am sure it is only a matter of time for me. I keep my hair short so I am hoping it does not seem like a lot. Hope you are doing well and that you have a great weekend. Jodi 218/188/130ish

Yikes....girl i was just thinking about that part! I was wondering if has happened to any of ya'll and how bad it got! I know there are vitamins for hair you can take. My aunt is a beautician and she told me but i forgot the name of the vitamins, when i talk to her again which will be tonite or tomorrow, I'll find out and post it. I have a really stupid question The weight thing ?/?/? what are the three stages of it. I'm sure your 250 is preop, but when are the other two weights? Thanks

Christie, I can answer that for you..... Pre-op weight Current weight Goal weight Looking forward to seeing your journey, it won't be long. Jodi

Hiya Denise, watch your protein intake... hair loss is worse if protein is not sufficient. How much do you think you're getting in a day?

Girl I feel ya, but there is not anything you can do. I get in plenty of protein and mine is still falling out. I get about 150 grams a day. But I am taking Biotin and it is helping my hair grow back faster. The say it stops about six months out. Hopefully I won't be bald by then. I have a lot of extra hair but I am losing it quick. Tina

Getting 150 a day? Wow... that's great! Just think what it might be without that LOL... and you're right, there's no stopping it... just decreasing it And I'd wondered about Biotin, but hadn't heard anything I could quote Thanks for the tip. Kat

Some people will tell you Biotin doesn't make a difference and some will tell you it does. I think it does because I can see the difference in my regrowth and my nails the grow alot faster when I take it too.

Hey Denise I lost my hair as well at 3 months, good thing I had a headfull to start. Once you up your protein you will be just fine. Thanks again for visiting me in the hospital.. HUGS Keep up the weight loss. I am trying to put some back on, who would have ever thought after WLS I am begging for the weight to come my way, at least 15-20lbs.... Have a great day and we will have to get together sometime..... Misty pre-op 263 ideal 136 current 117.5

Well i must tell you that I am not doing any protein, my doc says its not necessary and that there is nothing proven to say you have to have in so much protein. I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE BIG ON PROTEIN SO DONT YELL AT ME. I just have been trusting my doctor as we all have and have no reason to question them. I have asked them about the protein and he told me what I said above. On the 150 protein is that all in your drinks????? ok let me have it now??? I know you all will Denise 250/206/150
