Right On Schedule.....i'm Losing My Hair!

Yeah, yeah......I expected it. After all, I lost my hair when I had Band surgery too (and I'm not really sure it all grew back.) About a week ago (exactly 3 months and 5 days after surgery) I got a handful of hair as I rinsed out my shampoo. Every day since, I've left behind a clump of hair in the shower and even more on the bathroom floor as I blow-dry!

On the bright side, I'm down 33 pounds - halfway to my goal! I feel great. I'm exercising. I fit in a size 14. Life is good. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go sweep my bathroom floor.............

WOW.....I do not have a handfull of hair to lose. I never really noticed any change when I had my lapband and I lost around 90 pounds with the band. I will have to watch with the sleeve that I had on Dec 11, 2011

Oh my, handfuls? Just curious did you take Biotin? Only asking because I take a HUGE biotin pill religiously every morning hoping I can avoid hairloss. I have to cut it in fours and it literally makes me sick. Does Protein intake make any difference? Any helpful advice, please.

Good thing is that it grows back. But I know that doesn't help right now! Maybe you can try a cute new style so it wont be noticable.
