I told you all that I did go to the salon to get my hair cut. I already have fine hair. She cut off all the yuck and added some layers. Now don't get me wrong, it is thin -- for now. But it is sooooo much healthier. And I haven't noticed nearly as much loss in the shower. Or when I style. I am using cooler temps to dry and style. Basically babying my hair. But it is better. Keeping up the protein and vitamins and supplements and praying that it will bounce back here in a few months -- around that 8, 9, or 10 month mark that everyone is talking about. Hoping for 8 :D

I use an over the counter chewable gum mid type vitamin, peach flavored and very tasty! I also take calcium,b12, b1, biotin and zink. All over the counter but good brands. On my labs I was. Low on b1 so the doc and nut told me to take that. Also added chewable fiber gummies to help with the constipation issue!

I'm getting too much calcium, my doc told me to stop taking the calcium citrate about 3 months ago. This month my blood work showed I still have too much calcium, so they are doing a thyroid test next week. I'm not sure how they are connected but my family doc and surgeon both agree that I should get this scan to check it out.

Thanks NGM! I would love a code for a discount, moreover to spend on clothes as I lose!!!

Mine are over the counter as well, and my blood work also came back great.....except for the low protein.

Hello everyone. So I am a little sad because my hair keeps falling out a lot!!! I am in another stall again!!!! I have decided to go back to the basics like when I came home from the hospital after surgery. I also have to get my mind back in the game. A lot if training at work so that has been throwing me off my game!!!! And again the hair thing is really bothering me!!! Congrats to everyone and keep up the great work!!!

Hi there for me, my hair is also falling out. We just have to hold on to the fact from others that we won't go bald and it will grow back! Follow the food plan, take our vitamins and keep our eye on the prize!!

Where so you get the Celebrate vitamins?

I have to tell you guys...

Today while out shopping with my Husband we got separated getting things at SAMs club.

Well, my husband caught up to me a few isle over. I noticed he was smiling at me. I thought nothing of it and we finished up our shopping. When we got in the car he told me that he saw me walking in the store and smiled because I LOOKED GREAT!! It was so nice to hear him say that and to see the excitement on his face. I loved it and It made my day!!!
