Hair Loss

I haven't written in such a long time, it's been such a crazy few months. Work/life has been super hectic and more and more I've gotten used to my new life with the band.

Quick facts: Surgery was Sept. 14, 2012 (almost 4 months post op) and I've dropped 58 lbs. :-) I'm at 7.5ccs but I know theres room for more but I think I'm happy with the level of restriction I have at the moment.

I've been doing overall great, still making the right decisions and trying be as active as possible. I know I can be better with my water intake and I know that I can eat more protein (thank God for shakes) but I've come accross a side effect that I did not anticipate or even know off honestly, which is hairloss.

I realize that my body has changed dramatically since this started, and my body is trying to adjust, but wow its traumatizing. I've lost around 50% of my hair, so much that today Im going to cut it a lot shorter because I cant stand how sad and miserable it is at the moment. It's a relief to know that it will come back that this is just another step in the process, but have anyone of you expirienced this?

I've been losing hair for the last 2 months...they say that this massive shedding would not last more than 6 months...I'm so afraid of looking bald, when my hair was the only amazing trait I had before surgery.

Does biotin or supplements really work? or is this something to just wait out??

Thanks! Happy new year everyone
