Hair loss

Hello everyone. I am new to this forum. I had Gastric Sleeve surgery July 23, 2018. Starting weight 238....current weight 171.6.

Surgery recovery was very easy for me. Hardest part I think is changing the way I think about food and bad eating habits. Everyday I have to work on that mentally to change the way I think about food

Only negative from the surgery I would say is the hair loss. Still with that I have no regrets and am very happy with the results this far and the direction I'm headed.

Does anyone have a lot of hair loss after surgery?

It will depend on the platform. Mobile, app (Android iOS) web browser are all different and where you edit is all different. Which are you using?

If you are using the app it will be under account- profile tab, if you are using a web browser life safari it will be the three lines at the top that will open the menu -account-profile

If that doesn't work, you may need to sit down at a computer.

Hope that helps!
