Was wondering who all experienced this, and if anybody knows why it happens? Is it the fast weight loss or lack of Protein and nutrition in the first few weeks or what?

Debly even if you loose your hair it will not be forever, the hair follicle grows three hairs at a time one that is dead, one that is dying and one that is growing, the ones that normally fall after surgery are the ones that are dying anyway, so it might thin out more but only until the new ones grow. Make sure to take Vitamins and such, I know it helps (did a little more research after we talked, but it helps the new one grow faster) but the stress on your body just takes a toll sometimes you get Hair loss (the hair just dies faster) but you just go to decide if the benefits ourweight the cost, maybe the reason your hair is so thin as it is because you don't get good nutrition to your hair (most research shows that us who are overweight or obese are nutritionally depleted).... I really think it will be temporary, but we will love the end result!

Thank you. :). I needed to hear that. I told my husband this and he said not only would he shave his head so we could be twinsies but also that he'd buy be beautiful scarfs to wear while it's growing back. :). I'm gonna start adding Protein and Vitamins NOW in hopes that it won't be too bad. :). I just know I'm gonna lose a lot cause I already do!!! ;)

      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! 😞
