I am 8 months post op and have always had tons of hair. I haven't noticed any hair loss and never took any special procautions not to.

I am 6 months post op and have lost 60 lbs. I have not lost any hair, and believe me I would have noticed because I have very fine hair to begin with. I don't take any additional supplements other than my one a day vitamin and my citracal calcium supplements. I do keep up with my protein and usually have one protein shake a day. Other than that I attribute my slower than usual weight loss has kept me from loosing my hair. I figure my body was not shocked into loosing say 60 lbs in 3 months. Fine with me because I need all of my hair and I know the weight will come off eventually..."slowly but surely"
