I know there are THOUSANDS of Hair loss questions on this site. But I am wondering who has not experienced hair loss. I am almost 4 months post-op and have not experienced noticable hair loss. Yet, I worry every day that today will be the day that my hair starts to fall out. At what point should I stop stressing about this?

On a side note, I am extremly pleased with my weight loss results. Just still concerned about the hair loss possibility.

I thought it would not happen to me after 3 months. In last week, it now is coming out and showing up on my iPad screen :) easy to not miss it on the bright screen. Now when I tug on it about 10 rooted hairs come out, seriously thinking about a short cut during this Hair loss phase...

Excellent question. Thanks for asking because I am very interested in the answers. I am two and a half months post surgery and have noticed more Hair loss than normal, and am wondering when it will stop???

I lost almost 40 before surgery, and I'm going on three months from surgery. I haven't had any Hair loss yet, knock on wood. I'm taking plenty of Protein and extra zinc, in addition to some Biotin and Aveda Invati Shampoo and conditioner a few times a week.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
