Hi, Did you buy the Keranique Vitamins or the scalp serum??

I got bad news from my Doctor....she said there is NOTHING I can do about the Hair loss and suggested I cut my hair!! She said no Biotin or Vitamins is going to stop the hair loss. I cried. I will not cut it. She said it is going to get very very thin. I have very thick hair so am praying..... I just order keranique serum and hope that this helps.....

My doctor told me that you can't replace the hair you have already lost, but you can stop it from becoming lost, as well as keeping it from breaking by eating more Protein. I have found the easiest way to get more protein is to make smoothies using kale and other dark leafy greens, or making a Protein Shake, adding PB2 as a way to get more protein in drinkable form, there is also a protein packed yogurt that can add more as well, (Oikos, black containers.)

I hope this helps! It's definitely made my hair stronger.

Congrats on your weight loss! I'm going on to my second month. My question is, when u started eating solids, did u gain or stop losing weight? I'm on to my second month on Jan 20th but I feel that I have stopped losing weight bcuz I don't have a problem eating. Besides me getting full quick, I can still have chicken, meat, some mash potato, but obviously not over do it. I know some ppl can even have that, they have a hard time keeping it down. I heard the first 6 months you'll lose the most but I'm afraid I reached my limit. Did this happen to u, if so at what month?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
