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

      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! 😞
