Anyone Not Had Hair Loss?



Recommended Posts

Is there anyone out there that did not experience hair loss? I'm 12 days away from surgery and this is starting to really worry me. I have very thick hair so I'm hoping either it isn't noticable or I'm lucky and it doesnt happen to me.

If you have lost hair, how much?

I lost lots starting in month 3 but it stopped at month 9. It never got so bad that people noticed but I noticed. Don't worry--if it's going to happen it will happen and it will grow back. Biotin won't stop it but I got great nails and my regrowth looks really healthy.

Im almost 6 months out and I've lost very little hair. Fortunately, my hair is cut pretty short already, so any loss/shedding is not noticeable at all. I'm still worried that I'm not out of the woods yet. But at this point, I'd think it'd have fallen more if it were going to.

You won't go bald. It'll grow back. There's really nothing you can do to stop it or slow it down, aside from taking care of your overall health. That's about all you can say...

Of course, you COULD take a page from my book and shave your head. I didn't notice any loss at all ;)

We do loose hair. And it is hard to experience it happening. I can't wait until it stops and I have alot of regrowth. ;)

I'm 3 months post-op and I haven't noticed much difference in Hair loss. I know I might be shedding a little more than usual, but it's not noticeable. I've always had super thick hair, so I wasn't really too worried about hair loss. In fact, I was almost hoping (key word: almost ;)) that *some* of my extra hair would fall out. My hair is so unmanageable at times. ;)

I am at just over nine weeks and am just now finding hair in the shower and in my hairbrush. I am upping my Protein supplements (don't feel like eating much) and trying to get back on track with my Vitamins.

I am still happy I did this, even if I were bald. Gosh, I hope I didn't just jinx myself! lol

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
