    I didn't explain myself correctly , I didn't say protein makes hair fall out, I meant that I will have to start drinking my protein even if I don't want to, because I heard your hair starts falling out because of the lack of protein & I don't want my hair to keep falling out!! , thank you for all of your advise , I will have to try that Protein Shake maybe I end up liking it

    I take these and I actually like them. the Advanced Multi EA.

    And I have a Protein shake every single morning. I take my thyroid medication with 3 glasses of Water because I have to wait an hour to have anything else then drink a Protein Shake. I then take my Vitamins before or after lunch depending if I am working from home or office. Check the values on these versus what you are taking to see if they are comparable. I also take a Vitamin D gummie and a sublingual B12.< /p>

    I despise Protein shakes so my go to is GENEPRO Protein powder. I add it to foods like hot chocolate or milk based Soups. It's whey Protein so it works best with milk based products. One tablespoon is 30g of protein. For the first three months that was my main source of protein since I could eat so little.

    Wow, you THINK you are getting 40 grams of Protein a day? No wonder you are losing your hair.
    I agree, you definitely need to track your food to make sure you get in enough Protein. What is your target? Mine is 100 grams a day. 60 grams would be a bare minimum. Most of us have a target of at least 80 grams.
    Getting only half of your protein would lead to Hair loss, slow healing, and slow or no weight loss.
    Talk to your NUT as soon as possible about strategies for getting more protein in addition to finding Vitamins that you can tolerate.
    Are you at the very least getting 64 oz of Fluid a day?

    OK a couple if things. First, omeprazole isn't a Vitamin. That is an acid reducer. That one shouldn't make you sick but if you feel it does, take it right before you go to bed that way you will sleep thru the nausea. Second, Biotin dies not prevent your hair from falling out, it just helps regrowth. There is a lot if speculation on whether it truly works or not. If that ones makes you sick, just skip it for now. Third, check your Multivitamin to see how much Iron is in it. There may be sufficient Iron in it for you not to have to take the separate supplement. And lastly and most importantly, you HAVE to get your Protein up. At 3 months post-op, you should be getting a minimum of 60g (and possibly more). You indicate "you think" which means you are not logging your food. You need to do that at least for a while until you are sure you are getting the tight nutrients. And PS insufficient Protein is likely why you are losing so much hair.

    I understand what she was saying. You post pictures asking others if others can see a difference. Most of the time people do that because they themselves are having a hard time seeing it.
    If we don't get smaller clothes it's hard to see where we are..
    But in your case you see the difference and put this out there to get confirmation.

    The difference is SO MUCH easier to see in others than it is in ourselves...
