Well crap. I'm just about 4 months out and i'm starting to lose hair like crazy so I upped my protein to 100g and I've been taking a multi with biotin and after reading this I'm resigned to dealing with it for now.

I am fortunate that I have extremely thick hair and it will be a while before it's even noticeable but I'm also very very vain about my hair (it's my best feature) and I will probably need therapy to deal with the loss...lol

As for my nails I have acrylic overlays so my nails don't break. Yeah I know it's cheating but I love the look of long manicured nails and I don't care what anyone thinks...lol

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Yeah, the hair's nice, Dana, but I'd have to nominate that smile for the honor of best feature! And you won't be washing it down the drain, either!!
