Hey, you're going to have to change your name pretty soon to SlimBear1960. You are doing great.

I asked my support group last week too and they suggested the same things however they said it could last as long as 12 months. I am vowing not to sweat it. Ugh that's hard because I haven't a lot of hair to begin with and it now looks like straw. I am 22 weeks post op. Thanks

I finally got my hair just the way I like it. The length where I can pin it back if I want and the color too. So now it's got all these frizzy pieces sticking out all over. At group they said a lot of people cut their hair short until it stops falling out. Ugh! I started my biotin and Omega 3.

58 pounds is awesome. you are looking awesome too! i take the biotin from bariatric advantage. i also take the omega 3 chewies. both of those are for hairloss. i think they are working. i thought about nioxin, but my hair stylist suggest not to do it, cuz it will make your hair dry and brittle. if you try the b12, please report back and let me know if it works. i think the biotin is working. thanks for sharing the info from your support group. i love hot and cold tea.

Thanks for the info on what you are taking for you hair.

Just checked out your videos, I'm getting the VSG as well. I'm in the beginning stages. I will start classes soon. Which support group are you attending, is it KP?

I'm 4 months post op and am going through the hair loss phase. It's horrid. I think I need to check into that Biotin. Thanks for the info and sharing your journey.

So happy that you are doing well. My surgery seems so far away. I have to wait until March! Watching your videos encourage me and keep me excited!

Bariatric Advantage just came out with a yummy Omega-3 chew. Even though your hair may feel thin, I don't see you and think your hair is falling out...so not noticeable to the untrained eye. I'm right on your heels....

Thanks doll. Nice to have others notice.
