That looks to be about the same amount I lose after brushing my hair when I get out of the shower. Then add about another half a handful after blow drying. It is very annoying, but like you, I have lots of thick hair so while I notice it obviously, other people don't seem to. My doctor said that there is really nothing to do to stop it or slow it down really. I take Biotin daily and use a biotin shampoo/conditioner as well, but that only helps with regrowth which I seem to have quite a bit of. It just looks small and fuzzy around my hairline. Oh well, I will take the weight loss progress and huge health benefits and buy a wig for awhile if it comes to that.
Not looking forward to the hair loss phase. I don't have a lot of hair to begin with so...yeah. Probably won't be too bad for you since you have lots of hair to begin with. Thanks for posting a pic of the amount though because I've been freaking out over one strand as the 'beginning' and it's just typical stuff I'm sure...so, now I know what people are talking about. I'm about 7 weeks post-op.
Mine was more then this as well, luckily I also had a thick head of hair to start off with. I lost consistently from 3-6 months post op. Now I look like a chia pet with all the new growth LOL
Don't worry girl, it will stop and it will grow back!
