Well, this is one side effect I won't have to worry about. I have alopecia...but wanted to throw this out to anyone who is having hair loss. Wigs are a lot cheaper and a WHOLE lot more fun than they used to be. I have to wear one every day, and I have everything from blonde to black, short to long, and everything in between. Sure, I would love to have my real hair back, but *shrug* not much I can do about it, so why not have fun in the process!!! :thumbup: I buy them all over the place - ebay, beauty supply stores, www.voguewigs.com, and a few others!

Maybe find a new goal to work towards? a marathon, or something else that you have to work at to get to?

Hello everyone! This is my 1st time here and I have been soaking up all the wonderful information on here. I have been combing the internet trying to get as much info and perspective as I possibly can. I am going to a seminar on the 21st, and then go from there. I am hopeful and excited... I've tried and tried to lose weight...and I have lost it...but it always comes back...much quicker than I lost it. I'm scared...for lots of reasons. I'm scared that I won't get approved through insurance or a creditor. I'm scared what losing all this weight will mean for me. I've hidden behind it for so long. I've always been that crazy fat girl. I wanna be the crazy, funny chick with the smokin' bod!! But I really feel like I am ready to come out from behind the curtain. How has it been for those of you that have lost when it comes to attention from people (good and bad). The times in my life that I have been relatively fit, people treated me both better, and at the same time, so much worse. Does that make sense? Anyway it seems I am rambling! I am happy to be here and look forward to reading about your stories!
