Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 I am having a nutritional breakdown. I thought everything was fine too, until 13 months post op my hair started falling out. I've been losing about 500 hairs a day.. and yes, I counted. I joined this list to get advice because I'm finding my doctors to be less than responsive, and appear to know nothing about my needs. I've been complaining about hair loss for almost a year, and the only testing done was for menopause, which came up just fine. All of these postings you're reading are letting me know that I MUST gag down the extra protein. I had not lost any weight at all since last August, and SINCE I JOINED THIS GROUP AND STARTED GAGGING DOWN 2 SHAKES A DAY I LOST 5 POUNDS..... IN THE PAST WEEK!!!! Again, I've not lost a single pound in over 6 months :-) THANKS EVERYONE! I have now broken 190 pounds and am into the 180s. I just got out of the bath so 8 oz of that loss is due to this morning's hair loss. <sigh> I've been chugging down vitamins, and soon, I'll get paper and pencil and start doing it right. I am NOT a good patient, but at least I'm taking all my supplements now. Judy in Chicago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
