I was banded 8/16/2013 and today i noticed im loosing a lot of hair, what vitamins should I take to prevent it?

First you need to make sure you're getting in plenty of protein. Some people say that Biotin helps.

It's not Vitamins, it's Protein. However, it's natural for the body to shed hair during stress and surgery is certainly stressful to the body. Need to keep protein to a min of 60g/day, more is better. Others take Biotin as well. It doesnt prevent hair loss but has building Proteins to support your new hair to come in stronger/thicker (good additive since the decreased protein levels would most likely result in thin brittle hair).

Sorry hon, this is a common problem with a not so good solution lol

I havent been taking my Protein Drink i didnt think it was that important but ill start again today thanks for the advice

Getting the proper amount of protein is one of the MOST important thing following wls. Sixty grams minimum per day!! If you don't like the protein drinks, there are numerous ways to add protein to your meals.

Were you able to get your protein in while doing the liquid phase post op diet?
