My hair has been falling out like crazy for about the last 3 weeks to 1 month. I ended up cutting off about 6 inches because the shedding was too much. I have started using Biotin Shampoo and taking a Biotin supplement, but from what I understand these are slow to take effect. I am hoping this all settles down soon.

I had my sleeve april 13th, and am down 65lbs. Hit my goal about 3 weeks ago and have lost 2 more lbs since then. My wife doesn't want me to lose any more but I am eating as much as I can, plus 2 protien shakes a day, and it still keeps coming off. I bought a bunch of new clothes, had too, and now they are getting big! Seeing my doc tomorrow for the 10 week post op.hope he can direct me on how to maintain with out eating junk. As far as Hair loss, I was already losing it for the last 10 years, so can't give you any advice there, but its still coming out..HaHa Good luck to all!!!!

Yep, i am shedding like a cat!

Ok maybe not quite, but i started losing hair around 2 weeks ago.. its not very bad, but enough to find hair on the bathroom floor, lounge, clothes and when i comb it in the shower i do get a decent sized clump.

I have long hair, so i am sure it looks alot worse than what it is.

I have been reaching my Protein and nutritional goals since i started solids... so i know i just need to ride it out

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
