I think I am either going to cut it off or put braids back in my hair. It's so depressing to see how thin it is. I do have a spaces of misses hair too that I try to cover up as best as possible. I know it's just hair & I don't mind cutting it short but it's the thinness that makes it look so unhealthy. I am hoping that if I cut it, my hair will grow back thicker..??

Try Shampoo and conditioner with keratin in it. It strengthens the hair shaft. I been using it and it seems to help. I also have been wearing extensions with my hair braided underneath. It seems to help since I have been without a relaxer for 4 months.

i know it sounds crazy, but I didn't wash my hair during the first 6 months and I guess it helped me with the thinning of my hair because I didn't perm it or anything during those 6 months and when I did wash it, it was thick and healthy although I did have the hair loss. But I've heard of people taking the Vitamin Biotin...it helps the hair and nails.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
