Protein is the key. Twice a day if your working out. Biotin does help.

Carlak- Biotin is another name for Vitamin H. It helps strengthen your hair and nails. Some foods like cauliflower, bananas, carrots, egg yolk and sardines have Biotin. My doc recommended I have two supplements daily.

I also take 2 shakes a day.

My hair thin-out just a bit. Hope this helps.

Carlak start taking Biotin ASAP as soon as you can the hairloss for me was very interesting it shed a lot of hair but eventually slowed down and stopped now I have the random tiny hairs that are currently all over my head about 2-3inches of regrowth and it's fun to see but I wish I would have had a fortifying aid like biotin- and had taken everyone's advise and given my body more Protein vs comfort foods like Soup that just made me feel relief from digestion - good luck and don't worry too much about the Hair loss it will happen but won't leave you bald or anything like that it will just get thinner

Will it grow back and get back to it's original thickness? Is there a point I should worry? How long is it going to fall out for ?

Take Biotin the hair falls out but don't be scared one day it just stops mind went on for about 3mos- by the six post surgery mark it was good and it started at the third month - I'm needed to take more biotin !!! Or some all together !! Take it and it gets better and my hair a year later feels back to normal

      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? 🤷‍♀️
