Hi, post gastric bypass on February 12, 2019. 85lbs lost, hair falling out, stuck at 200. The first pic is pre and the second pic is now. I need to break this plateau. Thoughts? received_315436172383532.jpegreceived_863077007412695.jpeg

I had very little hair loss, fortunately. It started at about five months out and lasted maybe three months. I didn't really notice it other than some extra strands in my comb - so I'm sure no one else did.

Stalls are a natural part of the weight loss process. Hang in there. Keep doing all the things you're supposed to be doing like eating protein, getting in your water, and maybe get some walking in.

Love the new hair! I know it may be to hide the loss but it suits you. And you look great. The stall will break. Don't worry.

For about three weeks. I am working on the protein and trying to be very mindful of everything I eat. Hopefully it will break

I've been lax on my protein and water, working on that since yesterday to be more conscious of the details.
