Anyone NOT LOSE their hair?

[stevegoad 32]

I'm right at 3 months post-op, and haven't lost any hair.

Good thing, since I am keeping my surgery quiet - I don't want friends seeing me losing weight and going bald - they would think I was sick for sure. :biggrin:

I am just making sure I keep the Protein up, and it seems to help a lot.

The other poster is right, it starts around the 3rd month......I don't believe it has to do with Protein because I was doing Atkins once (which was alot of protein) and my hair thinned then also.

Mine is just thinning, noticing more hair on my brush than usual, I have very fine hair so I am not too thrilled.......but it will grow back and so far I am the only one that notices it.

Good luck!

No Hair loss for me. Have been banded for 4 months and started the weight loss process last Nov. I do make sure I get the required protien each day and take Biotin and Vitamin E each day. Not sure if it helps or not but take it just in case.

Forgot to add. I think people react differently when it comes to surgery. 15 yrs ago, at the age of 38, I had gallbladder surgery and because of complications I ended up in the hospital for over a month. My hair turned completely white during that time period. I went right from the hospital to the beauty salon for a good dye job.

I havent noticed any Hair loss. Must be due to something in the diet some are having that it makes your hair come out? I must not have changed whatever it is they changed?

My dr recommended to take your Vitamins and protien daily. I have not lost any hair, in fact my hair has grown even longer since surgery.

I am 5 months out and never experienced any Hair loss. I am not regular about taking a multi Vitamin, but pretty regular with my Protein intake.
