Great pics ladies. Keep going. Anyone starting to experience Hair loss?

Yes!!! Exactly 3 months out the hair starting falling out in clumps. My brother almost died in August and it was a traumatic experience- in November an December my hair was talking out like crazy...it JUST started growing back, and now it's all falling out again. Sigh. At least I know it will come back.

I'm shedding a tiny bit a couple weeks ago? But nothing significant. Thankfully.

Yes, my hair has started falling out. I read it would happen but now that it is I'm freaking out just a little. I have thick hair and am starting to feel and see the difference. :(

I might be shedding. I don't really know because I always shed. I am not noticing anything significant at 3 1/2 months out.

UGH - my hair is falling out as well. My scalp got sunburnt this weekend! I haven't taken a lot of pictures since my surgery, but my sister snapped a picture of my niece and I the other day and posted on Facebook. My mom saw the picture and commented that she didn't think it was the most flattering since my hair wasn't done like it normally is. I explained that my hair was done, but it's normal anymore. I have lost so much that it's very thin and flat compared to what it used to be.

I am down 48 pounds since the day of surgery, and 63 pounds since my surgical consult. I'm feeling very discouraged lately. I think that I'm just dealing with some body image issues. I am having a hard time with my excess skin, and the fact that I'm loosing in my boobs, butt and gut but I don't notice it other places. I keep getting astonished looks and comments from people I haven't seen in a while, so I guess it's noticable. I just need to get my brain to catch up with my body.

I thought I wasn't losing a lot if hair either until today. Today I lost a huge clump in the shower. I'm starting to get nervous about it. My surgeon's office said the only way to combat it is to try to reach your Protein goals and take your Vitamins. I've also started using two different shampoos. One is by L'Oreal. It's called Everstrong. It's a low sulfate thickening Shampoo. And the other one is a Biotin & collagen shampoo. I can't think of the name of it, but it's a purple and gold bottle. You can get them both at Walgreens, Walmart or Target.

And Niko, I can see a huge difference in your pictures! You look great!

Hey guys! I haven't stepped foot on a scale since the 24th, so I hope my wedding week and honeymoon aren't wrecking my progress! I'm going to try to post a pic of my wedding and one of my highest weight.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?

      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
