Hi Everyone, So I am 6 months post op VSG. Doing really well, but noticed some hair loss. THANKFULLY, I have thick hair and it is just thinning, but I need a haircut and color/highlights. Any recommendations? Leave it as it is or get it done. Thanks in advance!

6 months post op feel free to contact me!

Oh yes always cold....that happens when you loose insulation!!! :-)

Yes I had health issues, sleep apena, Metabolic syndrome,PCOS, Vit D deficiency. 6 months post most resolved!

Rockinrobin increase your protein! How many grams are you getting a day?

I agree with careya123, therapy is a must! My program we were required to be screened prior to surgery a d for you to go through this at a young age from psychological stand point, most 18 year olds don't have a lot of self- awareness. I also experienced hunger early on into surgery,but with the support system I have we figured out I was not getting enough Protein causing my hunger. So I increased my protein/shakes, it helped and my life has changed immediately. For solving your problem now, I would see a surgeon who is apart of an accredited program. They will know where to go from there. I know the program I am in is highly rated. Once discussing options I would then see a nutritionist who deals solely with Bariatric nutrition. They are the best suited to help. I am so sorry you have not had the results hoped for, don't give up! Your life can still change. Feel free to message me if you ever need to talk or support.

Gas pains I had them too. SO PAINFUL! Walk as much as you can it makes the gas dissipate.

6 months tomorrow close to 100 lbs down
