Wow I read the entire thread. I was sleeved nov. 24 2015. I have no regrets went back to work in 2 weeks. I am working out and continue on liquids and maintaining my Protein intake. Have not had a lot of throwing up. But when I eat something I know immediately if it does not agree with me. I am not far enough along to experience Hair loss yet. I am taking my Vitamins faithfully. Don't need this problem. I already have issues of hair loss around my edges without the sleeve. I am an older sleever age 49 will be 50 March 2016. Happy to see the topic look forward to reading more.
