Diary of a Skinny Bald Woman !

Six month to a year from now, when I'm at goal, will this be me? Will I be blogging, "I am now five pounds under my original goal weight and I am getting used to my new shiny bald head."?

 

I dread the thought of how I will look if any more hair falls out! [ATTACH]308[/ATTACH]

 

I have tried everything, and I do mean everything, to stop the dreaded WLS hairloss! I supplement my protein, take biotin, multi vitamins, B12, B complex, Nioxin vitamins, use Nioxin shampoo & conditioner, take other remidies for hairloss ......... The list goes on and on, but NOTHING HELPS!

 

Should I start shopping for wigs and hats now? [ATTACH]309[/ATTACH]

 

I already have a large collection of shoes so that I have the proper shoe to match outfits. Now will I need a hat in every color and style?

Visions of The Cat in The Hat, thing 1 & thing 2 and the two children keep dancing around in my head. The room is filling up with hats!

 

I have heard that nothing tastes as good as thin feels. Will being thin feel better than being a bald woman? Will I eventually accept the fact that I no longer have my golden silky locks? Will my ears look big? Oh my gosh, will I need to get earings to match the hats?

 

Will people look at me and ask what the prognosis is?

 

Will I be subjected to melon head and bald jokes?

 

Will I look as cute as Britney and Demi do bald ? I think NOT![ATTACH]310[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]311[/ATTACH]

 

Maybe I will try out new styles, lengths and colors. [ATTACH]312[/ATTACH]

 

Will I find out if blondes have more fun?

It is so frustrating ! It makes me want to pull my hair out! oops! bad choice of words. Better not do that!

OMG what is going on? Never heard of anyone's hair falling out who has had the band. I do know some who's hair has thined with the gastric bypass. Hope you find a cure. Keep strong!

My hair is falling out too. in globs in the shower. i don't even brush it anymore (its straight enough not too) because i don't want to pull anymore out. I have really thick hair, so i have some time to bide....but i'm really scared.
