I am post op 10 months now. Taking biotin and flax seed oil tabs for a few months now. Still losing lots of hair and thining out. I guess I still am not getting enough protein in. It is hard when my food portions are so limited. I have lost 60 lbs.

What do your 3 meals consists of and snacks? That isn't many calories. The protein shakes will boost it a little. Sounds like your gettin alot of protein so I am curious what you are eating with so little calories. Take care.

Sounds like alot of fears. No fret, we all have them. But it truly is a good decision. The wt. will come off, maybe not as fast as you would like, but it will. You will be pleased.
