Hey all!

A little about me, I started out at 325lbs. I'm currently 3 months post op gastric Bypass surgery! I'm down 70lbs weighing in at 255lbs! I feel amazing, I'm loving the process, BUT I can't deal with this hair loss! It's making me depressed! I used to have this beautiful long black hair and now it's short and dried out and falling out by the pounds

Someone please tell me this gets better!!!

Anyone have any solutions to this problem? I take my Vitamins every single day and doing great with my Water intake and protein! Any suggestions?!

Thank you in advance! post-296597-14840162324437_thumb.jpg

I'm 5 months out from my bypass... I started losing hair at the 3 month mark. I'm happy to say my Hair loss has slowed down considerably. My weight loss has also slowed down to 2 to 2 1/2 lb a week. I think when our weight loss slows down so does the hair loss.

most people don't lose enough for anyone else to notice, and some people don't lose any at all (I didn't lose any). Plus, it grows back.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
