    Hey girl! How are you? Did you ever get the piece you ordered? I wanted to know if you loved it as much as I love mine. I hope you do and were able to get the color you needed. I also found on ebay individual pieces that look pretty cool, I may try those out as well. My hair is growing back alittle bit but its still so thin. Hows yours doing?

    Personally, I find that my hair is falling off alot in the front. Like i could just grab a hair in the front and it will break off. I would say if you get the extensions.. try to get them in the back of your head and around the crown. Not in the front because you may pull off more around the front to keep the extensions on.
    I use a human hair piece extension. Its 1 piece and it looks really good! You can put it on and take it off whenever you want to. I think thats alittle better and less expensive then having them professionally put on. Thats the good thing too because this piece you can take off and not have it pulling your hair day and night for weeks, you can use it when you want to and take it off while your home or when you go to bed. I wil send you the info so you can check the piece I have out incase you'd like to get it too!

    Hey im pretty good! Oh thats great that its slowing down! Mine is too. Yeah Im eatting alittle better now too, which is almost scary but i think at some point we were going to have to start eatting again. And im sure its going to help us keep our hair and stay healthy. Im trying to take my vitamins and protein shakes as much as possible too.

    Here's a website you can check out if you wanted to read more about hair loss, and what treatments they have for it. Even though our hair is only falling out cause of the surgery so I dont treatment for it will be nessasary right now but its cool to know what youre options are.
    American Hair Loss Association - Home Page
    My friend had this surgery too and lost alot of her hair but her's grew back really nicely.
    You can also go on ebay and look for human hair extensions if youre interested! Or you can go to a salon and have them professionally put in for you. The human hair looks alot better then the synthetic extensions!
    Im going to be posting some updated pics of me even though I look terrible in them! lol and I've lost weight but I still think i look over weight but whatever i hope to take better pics when I lose alot more.
    65 lbs is alot! I cant wait to see your new pics too!

    And she said it grows back more beautifully and its not like a long term thing as long as we drink the protein shakes and take out daily vitamins. I still take the biotin also and the protein shakes.
    SHe said that Zinc and Selenium was also good for hair growth. SHe also recommened me rogain lol but i dont think I'll go that route. I bought some hair extensions and might get them done professionally eventaully but it makes me feel alittle better about the hair loss and their real human hair, so its not as fustrating for me anymore. It has slowed down though too so hopefully yours will but hang in there and it will grow back, try not to let it worry you.

    Aww You're very welcome! I Hope you enjoyed youre birthday so much more this year!
    Yeah i was stalling for awhile too, I dont see it dropping as much as it was before. I thought maybe its because like I've been eatting alittle better lately and tolerating more solid foods. How are you with that? Maybe that could be it for you too. Yeah I know what you mean about the hair. I have the hair patches and thinning in the front of my hair too, which sucks. But I went to a doctor about it- a dermatologist that works with hair loss, and she said the good thing is that we're not losing this hair because soemthing is wrong with us its simply because of the stress that the surgery has caused on our bodies and for the lack of protein our body is getting. And she said that right now the hair is falling off but our hair grows in cycles so in about 2 months we'll be more healthier and getting protein so it will start growing back during the next cycle.

    Hey girl! How are you and hows everything? Is the weight still coming off and hows the hair? Were u ever able to get the biotin or any other info on helping that situation?
    I've been losing more and keeping up with the biotin vitamins and drinking the protein fruit shakes religiously! lol My hair has been falling out alot but i think im finally absorbing the vitamins and protein better since the hair loss is slowing down now.
    Im alittle over 70 lbs down now and I feel like I've lost more then the scale reads lol I did alittle shopping also and bought a really nice bathing suit. We both need some updated pics! lol
    Well hope all is well!

    Hey! yeah ive been eatting alittle better lately too but i havent been able to eat anything yet. I find myself eatting most of the same things that i can tollerate over and over lol just cause im scared of eatting anything else. I actually finally had some meat yesturday and it worked out great!
    Oh yeah I was losing alot of hair too! I was really scared too i didnt want to go bald either. Its still coming out but not as much as before. I lacked in the protein dept big time! But lately ive been trying to get alot of protein and ive been having alot of calcium and ive been taking Biotin vitamins my doctor recommended for the hair loss. Its really good actually you may wanna buy some and try it! I used 1,000 mg's but when my hair started falling out i went up to 5,000 mg's of biotin and i dont see a smuch coming out.
    Protein and vitamins have to be out bestfriends right now! I hope that helps for both of us cause i know i freaked out when i seen alot of hair was falling out!
