Because our hair grows in cycles, my dietician instructed us to start taking our Bariatric vitamins and biotin now. And to make sure we get in our daily required protein!!! Hopefully, this will help prevent hair loss post op.

I have finished my Preop nutrition classes and psych evaluation. I have also finished all of my Preop weight-ins and received my referral letter for surgery. Just waiting to have my EGD on August 23rd and get my surgery date. My insurance didn’t require a 6 month weight-in! Thank Goodness! I’m so ready! Waiting on my surgery date! But I’m already experiencing backlash from friends!

I told a couple of my coworkers who are in the medical field with me but I haven’t told my family. I’m waiting for my approval before I tell them. I know my son and my sister will not be happy with my decision.

Ok. I will from now on. Thank you

Thank you sooooo much! Did you take any supplements/multivitamins before surgery? Did they help with hair loss?

I am new to this process. I have had 2 appointments with my primary and will meet with my Bariatric surgeon next month. I feel so defeated with trying to loose weight. Any advice?
