Someone please help. I have had MAJOR hair loss for about 6 weeks now- I mean MAJOR hair loss. It just won't stop. I am lucky that I HAD a very thick head of hair- but I am less than 1/3 of what I had. I'm getting worried. I was banded in July and have lost 64 pounds. Please advise if anyone knows what I should do. :help:

what's Biotin, and where can I get a protein drink that has 24 ? Mine (optifast) only has 14.

Thanks,

Caryn

if you buy the protein mix called (whey) i think that has at least 21 grams of protein

Slim fast low carb has 20 grams of Protein. A lot of people really like Matrix or Ungury. You have to buy it online.

I have major hair loss too, and I have been taking Biotin since I had the surgery. A lot of people on here have, and there doesn't seem to be anything we can do to stop it. It stops when it wants to. Keep upping your protein though, because it sure can't hurt.

I got all my stuff at Vitamin Shoppe. I think you can get Biotin anywhere that sells vitamins. I drink Syntrax Nector Roadside Lemonade. It's a whey protein isolate. It's 24 grams of protein and only 90 calories. I love it.

get to the doc!!! and add zinc to your daily intake. I experienced the same problem with Atkins, lots of hair loss, it is a sign of malnourishment, really!!

Congratulations - You look fantastic. Wow size 8!! that is incredible.

its not just WLS patients who lose their hair. close friend of my was seriously ill and hospitalized for two weeks. at around 4 months her hair started to fall out and got remarkedly thin. she was told different things by different specialists but I think it was due to poor nutrition while she was so ill

? by the time it falls out isnt already too late?
