  1. Hey everyone! I have a question I was stopped in the hair salon by a lady who saw me drinking my Protein drink and suggested shakeology. I was interested since I consume mostly the Protein drinks at least a week after I get a fill. Does anyone know any cheaper alternatives to shakeology that have the fruits and the veggies in the shake? Any help would be extremely helpful!
  2. Thank you all for the advice! I went to the store and got Biotin shortly after reading the posts. I have been taking in 75-85g of protein so I know thats not the problem but I have my first fill tomorrow so I'm gonna talk to my doctor then THANK YOU ALL!!
  3. Hello everyone! I am 3 weeks post op ane have lost 35 lbs but im having a biiig problem and have no idea what to do. I am losing my hair at a really really rapid rate. Everytime I touch it, wash it, brush it, or comb it chunks of hair fall out. I read before I had surgery that this would happen and to make sure you keep your protein up. I have anywhere between 75-85 grams a day and im taking ALL of my vitamins. What can I do to slow this down? I turned 25 in June and already have a bald spot please help!
