Lisa... Don't you even think about wearing a hat or a Wig!!!
That cut is ADORABLE!  Your hair will grow... in the meantime enjoy that cute cut!!!  

My hair started falling again also... just this past week i'm noticing it.
WHAT? I also have only a few pounds left to go to get to goal... and have been trying to get there... so who knows girl?

I feel your pain....   the only thing I can think of ... is how are your thyroid levels? I had my bloodwork done recently but haven't had the results back yet. 

hang in there... I rather be BALD & thin....
than MO with a whole head of hair!!

 Mu hair started falling out again, too?? Weird! Maybe it happens when you're one year out? 

I had huge, gigantic reconstructive surgery of the lumbar spine on May 21st. I am blaming mine on that.  I was under anesthesia for 9 hours. I feel like everything has been out of whack since then. My body has been through so much this year. Poor body. 

Has anyone started having horrendous gas at a year out? Maybe it's just the price to pay with being able to eat little bits of new foods, or perhaps its the meds I am taking for my nerves in my spine. I don't know which it is, but it's awful. 
       I count protein, fluid ounces, and my blessings everyday.

Lauren.... wow I'm sure glad Lisa posted about this... we could have been suffering all alone....

I'm so sorry you had to undergo another surgery! Probably some of your issues are related to that... But very interesting that at least 3 of us July people are having hair issues AGAIN.

Mine isn't falling out 30 to 40 at a time anyway... like in the beginning but definately more than what I would consider as normal since I hadn't had any NOTICIABLE loss in some time....

hope you start feeling better soon...

I have a friend at work who has had a band for about 12 or so years.  When I first started noticing hair loss, she said that it still happens to her from time to time.  So it might be something that we just have to grin and bear every once in a while.  I don't know...

I guess your right.. I don't think it matters.. I mean a girlfriend of mind loss 100 lbs through Jenny Craig.. shes going bald too!!...So I had a moment of unhappiness after i saw my hair being cut again.. i will have to deal with it.. because I do not want to be 180lb heavier again.. LOL.. "TO BE FAT OR NOT TO BE FAT IS THE QUESTION"...LOL.. take care

heck, go for the Grace Jones look.  You might like it  ;-)     It'll always grow back and plus when it does, it will hopefully grow back evenly.

I personally haven't seen a change in hair loss (it's stabilized for now) but so has my weight (for now ;-)  so maybe if/when I start losing again, I'll understand if the hair starts to fall out again. 

Hang in there girl :-)
