My Hair!

3 months out (just about) down 66 pounds ... Yay but literally losing my hair in handfuls. I have fine/ thin hair as it is an now there is a definite bald spot on the top of my head. Using biotin, b12 taking in protein and multivitamin what else? I know sometimes it's inevitable but any other recommendations? Thanks!

I was told to up my Protein, take my Vitamins and wait it out. At six months I'm proud to announce that I have peach fuzz coming in!!!

I was about to buy a wig!!!

I just fainted!!! A BALD spot??? REALLY????? My biggest fear!!! I am vapor locked!!! Had two people who were sleeved last year tell me niacin and folic acid are helpful. No one thing seems to be THE thing that works for everyone. After reading everything possible on this subject, I have concluded that prayer is just about as effective, and certainly more reliable, than all the other recommendations combined!! I am soooooooo sorry this is happening to you!!

I'm right there with you on the hair loss. It is definitely unnerving. Just keep reminding yourself that it is temporary. Other than the ones you've already mentioned, iron is also important for stopping hair loss.

will soon be looking into wigs
