I'm in the middle of losing my hair now.5 1/2 months out, 86 pounds down. I take all of the vitamins mentioned above. But I do dye my hair. I've always stated that I will not have a gray hair to be found in my head. Now I'm worrying weather I'll have a hair to be found in my head. No dye for a while. Good luck. I think we have to wait it out. I hear that it grows back as well.

Not to alarm you all but I'm 5 1/2 months out and still see slime. I totally laughed when I read your entry. My pouch still does not like certain foods. My mind tells me I can eat them and my pouch shows me it will not tolerate it today, try tomorrow. Chicken for instance baked or boil or steamed can be eaten only on certain days, per my pouch. And it better be moist. I learned to listen. Or visit the toilet and call Earls. 86 pounds down and going forward. Remember this was our choice. It is a life changer. I'm just now adjusting good luck? oh and follow the 30/30 rule. No food 30 minutes before you eat and wait 30 minutes after you eat before you drink. God that was a hard one.

Well this is my first post here. I'm 5 1/2 months out. I've lost 86 pounds so far. The stalls are real and you reach your first one about 2 to 3 months out. I'm a member of another forum from day one post op and just like they said it happened. I was so depressed, it lasted for two weeks or more. Note we lose more than weight, we lose harmones ladies and muscle if we are not active. Next even if you take your vitamins and drink your protein shake. Next is the hair lost. Notice given again from another forum. It's happening to me. But they also sais it grows back. I'm taking 10,000 mils of Biotin. It's helping a bit. Or it might be in my mind. As far as the calorie intake. I know to lose the weigh that you must stay under 600 cals. No it's not enough to live off of. By my 2 oz stomach will not holdall that food and liquids in one day. Or I will be calling Earls in the toilet. I remind myself that I didn't go through this for nothing. And to listen to my pouch. I must lose this weight. Period. Good luck to everyone. This is indeed a journey.
