Welcome to the board and it sounds like you are doing very well! Unfortunately for most of us hairloss is a given (not everyone though). I thought I was going to be a lucky rare one, but started losing at 6 mos. At just over a year, I think its finally slowing down. My hair is fine but I have lots of it. I definitely notice a difference but there are no bald patches or anything and its only temporary.

Look forward to hearing your WOWS!

Thanks, everyone, for the kind words! great to have support online! i'm 50 miles from the support group meetings and don't really enjoy them at all. seems like most of the folks there want to talk about what they can eat and "get away with". i'm just not in this to "get away with" anything. don't want to cheat! i want to work this tool and be a success story! its all that "cheating" that got me into that size 18 jeans to begin with!

anyway....i'm so enjoying all the support here! thanks again!

Blessings, J

Welcome Jenni, You are doing great. I started losing my hair in the 4th month. I had thick hair, so I just got to see what it was like to have thin hair for a while. I started taking Biotin and now I have a bunch of little baby hair coming in. Good Luck with everything.
