OMG!!! I AM LOSING MY HAIR!!!

Hello everyone.

I was banded March 24th. Loving my banded life, by the way. I am weighing in at 209, this morning, from 243. I do not even miss the foods that I gave up for my new life.

I do however miss my hair.

I have always had VERY thick hair, so no one really notices but me. But I have lost approximately 5 strands to every one that I have left on my head.

Now, I do not keep track of my Protein. Except by memory. I have an app. on my phone, but with school being out, it is hard to do anything other than run from the little monkies that are chasing me thru the house.

Is the lack of protein intake the reason I am losing my hair?

Help!!! I am too young to go bald. Especially after I pick at my hubby.

Hey just letting you guys know that I am working on a building a new website where I will be able to sell the Genesis for hair & nails on there for us all. I used to take it all the time and BOY did I see a huge difference! I will post the link as soon as I can, I promise!

:Banane35::Dancing_wub:

I'm sure you are just trying to help but I dont think you are supposed to sell or advertise stuff here. Also your article on aspartame has no references which means its just someone's opinion without the real science to back it up. Sorry but I speak the truth.

I am really just trying to help and if I know of something that WILL help these guys, then I will for sure post it just like everyyyyyone post about Biotin <_<. I am posting the info below and if anyone wants to just ignore it they can, but it helped me. I refuse to hold it back from anyone. I feel it almost a sin if I know something I feel is helpful and just keep it to myself. :lol: If the site has a prob with it, it's a sad loss but I think I'll get over it.

My article about aspartame and the harmful effects that it talks about is backed up by a lot of medical science. Take it or leave it. I will happily keep it on my sig. You know, freedom of speech and all. Thanks.

:thumbup:

(BTW if your having a hard time financially, just warning ya'll it's a bit pricey. I had to save a little for it this time.)

OK, so I have been promising you guys for WEEKS now that I would get this info out for you and I'm really sorry it took so long, but I finally got it going! :D :woot:

It helps for a lot of things but mostly for the growth in hair and nails. I stopped buying it for a while when we were struggling financially at a time, but now that I am losing my hair due to the surgery, I know its worth it again to just suck it up and buy the stuff!

Ok so you just gotta go to the link below and Sign in/Join (don't worry peeps it's free ;)) and then it will send you to the page where you can buy it at....Just click "add to cart" then click "buy" and it will send you to the next step where you add in your shipping address, etc....

Oh and also, if you would like a discount, try putting my member code in after you join... Join yourself first and if it asks, put in my code which is A4C and see if that works. You should be able to get like a $12.00 discount or something like that. I haven't tried it before, so unsure.

I'm sorry to hear about your hair loss, but thank you for starting this topic. I'm getting banded on August 12, and one of my top fears is hair loss. I have very fine and thin hair, and any extra hair loss will be noticeable on me. I'm going to have to look into some these products as a preventative measure (or treatment) for hair loss. My aunt has similar hair to me, and when she had her gastric sleeve she ended up having bald spots and looked sickly- granted she's more than twice my age, but I'd hate to look even worse than I do now as a chubby girl.

I'm sure you are just trying to help but I dont think you are supposed to sell or advertise stuff here. Also your article on aspartame has no references which means its just someone's opinion without the real science to back it up. Sorry but I speak the truth.

Oh and by the way, in case anyone had to question further, the article on my sig "Dangers Of Aspartame" is an article by a doctor who's own practice is right near me in Schaumburg, Illinois . His name is Dr. Mercola and I believe he has a lot of good info to share. Not ALL of his info can be correct, but I feel he is a good man and I really enjoyed meeting with him.

My cousin who had GB told my sister to take Bioten too her hair was falling out too thank god that the girls in my family have an crazy amount of hair! I still hope mine doesnt fall out too.:mellow:

My Dr. told me to take Bioten.
