  1. I have hair loss at about the 3rd month out. I noticed it falling out more when wet than dry. I bought Nioxin shampoo/conditioner that can be bought through your hairdresser. I also take Biotin and Zinc, which my doctor recommended. The funny thing is that I completely lost my underarm hairs! Too bad I didn't loose my leg hairs! Drink plenty of Protein drinks, if you do not get enough protein in.:tongue2:
  2. You will avoid slippage, as long as you don't over eat. Be careful and follow the guidelines. If you vomit a lot, by overeating, I heard that can make your band slip. Good Luck
  3. I took off 5 days, and I was fine going back. Just a little sore from gas pains in my shoulder. They said if you keep active, and walk it will heal you better than just sittting around. I also got up that evening in the hospital and walked as soon as I felt decent. You are better off walking then lying down a lot. Good Luck
