Hair loss is a very common complaint among topamax users. I have talked with Ortho, and they are aware of it. All mood stabilizers/anti-convulsants have some hair loss complaints.
As for the protein question - you do not not need more protein. That is part of the appetite suppresssion, you crave less carbs and sweets. Also, carbonated drinks will taste bad, and your taste will be affected a little overall.
