Hey girl, I can kinda relate to your "failure" feeling although our circumstances are different. I too started out doing great!!! I was down 42 lbs in just a few months and bought some new clothes to fit my changing body. I noticed that even though I was enjoying the feeling of weight loss success, I was starting to outsmart my band. Well needless to say I have gained back alot of the weight because I have just totally fallen off the wagon. I think maybe for me this could be ,in a very distorted way, a blessing though. I say this only because I have learned to hear what my body/band is telling me. At mealtime I can feel when I am satisfied (most of the time, choosing to ignore the feeling) and I feel "lighter" and more energetic when eating right. I have had several "stuck" episodes and have learned which foods will not work well for me. I made an attempt last month to get back ON THE WAGON and lost 4 lbs the first week then 3 the second week. Just make the decision to get back on the ball and listen to all the little signs you body gives you. It is super hard but you can do it. So we have felt like we FAILED, so what!!! That doesn't mean that we cant get back to it....it's not over, our bands dont have and expiration and we can use them whenever we want. JUST DO IT GIRL

I read mixed reviews about that and I know Its pricey. I didnt want to buy it and still be bald.

Hey All,
I was wondering how many of you have dealt with Hair loss? ?? I have lost about 40 lbs and much of that came off during the first 2 months of being banded. For the first few weeks I was ok but then started to notice that I was losing hair . I knew i wasnt getting enough Water and struggled to get the Protein in as well. I have since started taking ALL my Vitamins, getting in the recommended protein and have been gettin in almost all my water.Oh, I also started taking Biotin and I AM STILL LOSING HAIR!!!! :cry_smile: Like a great big bunch at every hair wash.
If you've had this happen to you please do tell me what you did to recover from the "vanishing hair trick".
