Today my shower stopped draining. I was taking a bath instead of a shower, so I had to get the plunger out. Damn, a wad of hair the size of 2 golfballs came up from the drain. I just cleaned that drain a couple weeks ago. I have longish kinda hair, so I have to clean the hair from the drain every month or so, but only half that amount usually comes out. So my hair loss has increased by 5 or 6 times its normal rate. Any mathemetician wanna correct my percentage based on listed facts (don't throw your other shoe at me.)

Is this permanent? Should I start buying scarves now? Meanwhile, my friend bought me a bottle of hair & nail Vitamins. I've been taking them daily. Not sure if they'll help, but they can't hurt.

LOL!!! Yeah my hubby is getting the tummy too! His family is all pretty darned skinny also. Maybe there is something to your theory Lisa. Teresa

Just remember that I'm the one who said it first, cuz when someone wins some big Nobel Prize or whatever that fancy prize is that smarties like me get, the thing better have my name on it!

I havent actually tried this... ( I am actually sooo slow, I have been blaming my hair loss on the hair colouring I used a few months ago.....) anyway, some of my friends swear that herbalife shakes completely stopped their hair loss when they were breast feeding. I, personally, cant stand the taste ( even the 'new and improved one -yuck) since my mom made me go on the herbalife program every few months when I was young ( didn't work of course

so i guess basically its about nutrition.....

cheers

tellie

ps, teresa, I like that theory!

Thanks, Tellie. I'm taking special hair Vitamins along with my other vitamins that are supposed to be the best on the market, so I'm sure they have most of the same junk as Herbalife, which is also on my list of failed diets that I've tried in the past.

How is everyone today? I'm wiped out. I think something's wrong with me like anemia or lack of life? After waking up, it takes over an hour to get out of bed. I'm dragging. I'm taking Iron and tons of vitamins but I'm lifeless. Could this be thyroid medication that I started taking a couple months ago? Could I be catching up with 30 years of severe insomnia? Or is this really just OWD like my husband says? Olt Woman Disorder.

I think it's "two-job-syndrome".

Girl, give yourself a break!!

No, Donali, this fatigue started before I got my second job. Next?

Oh. Okay. Well, I'm sure the second job helps you feel less tired, then...

Could it be your age? LOL!!! I think it is anemia, lack of some kind of nutrition in your system, not enough Protein maybe. Guessing here? Check with your Doc on the Thyroid meds. You could just have the "dropsy."

LOL

You know what, now that I think about it, my legs are hairier....

I used to have REAL thick hair, my pony tail was ridiculous... So I like my hair now, it is much easier to do. BUT.... It has thinned a lot and really hasn't come back. My daughter has hair just like me, and hers has not thinned. So I don't know the answer. I just want to talk....lol.... Honestly, It is coming back, just not as thick as it was...

Hmmmm.....well, I have very thick hair so I could stand to lose some. But, HAIRIER LEGS?!?! I so don't need that, LOL!

I thought we already established that I have Dropsy since I drop things all the time. Donali, shut up. Yes, my feet are throbbing and I'm wondering what the heck I'm doing working so hard for so little, but you're gonna be damn jealous when you see my foxy new top and 3 pairs of earrings from this evening's purchase!

Love, Fat Tired Bald Girl

Lisa, you're tired and it's HOT! The heat zaps me quicker than anything.

Stress will drain you and leave you exhausted.

Especially financial stress... LOL. It seems like you are spending more than you are earning Miss Lisa. Maybe you should drop the second job, you would be richer. Teresa

Teresa, I took the 2nd job for clothes and to pay a little extra towards my band. I spend half and send the other half to my credit card. You gotta see the deals I'm getting. I only buy off the clearance rack and use my discount. Tonight I spent $13.00, which is half of what I made. I got me a plan, girl. Besides, the amount they pay me at the Avenue can't help my financial state at this point. It's kind of a joke, so I'm really doing it for the clothes and exercise because it keeps me off my butt 20 hours a week, which my bod isn't used to. All the running around will have to catch up with me eventually so I'll have sexy varicose veins and bunions but my calves will look good.

Penni, I'm the freak who likes the heat.
