I'm losing mine in handfuls!! It's very depressing, but I knew to expect it b4 getting the surgery, and weighed the pros and cons. I'd definetly rather be skinny, healthy and bald, than morbidly obese, unhealthy, but nice full head of hair!!! I use Nioxin shampoo, and it seems to help a bit, but worry that in a few months, I wont have any left!

well glad to hear i'm not all alone with only loosing 47 pounds.......... my thyriod has been on the borderline for being low... but never have i been on any medication for it, and then my blood was checked before surgury they didn't say anything about it, but then again i didn't ask. i figured if it were really low they would sy something........ when i last measured i had lost 56 inches!. that was on march 22.... i'm looking forward to measuring on April 22 to see if i have lost any more!. so i might be slow at the pounds but my inches is AWESOME!

Don't feel to bad, I had surgery on 12/19/07 and I've lost 47 lbs also......... I've also had a low thyroid for years but when my surgeon did my 3 month bloodwork it came back low so he raised my medication which hopefully will increase my weight loss. I'm still happy with the fact I've lost weight, I just wi**** was more. Take care

I also had surgery on 12/19/07 and I am down 43 pounds! Isn't this amazing?!? You guys are all doing great.

I am shedding as well! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR... I take 5000mcg of Biotin each day and am thankful I started out with a head full of hair!
