HEY GANG ...

the divorce is final ... and I am in full swing these days. I have lost a total of 122 pounds. The weight is coming off ... REAL slow now ... and I need to kick exercise back into high gear! (Anybody is welcome to get on their soap box and lecture me ... I could use it!) I wear a size 16 ... down from a 30/32 prior to surgery. Life is grand ... and I am enjoying it for the first time ... EVER.

I went to my high school reunion (15 years) this past weekend. People kept buying me drinks (males and females) because ... "D***, Leanna you look GREAT!" Some people didn't recognize me at all ... funny how that happens.

Anyway ... I am getting a bit concerned about the hair loss. Obviously I wouldn't trade the weight for the hair anyday ... but I'm wondering how long it will be before I am bald. I've been using the NIOXIN products for a few months ... and the structure of my hair seems stable but I still lose it alot. Any thoughts ? Anything that will help ... and why is it exactly that this is happening ?

hey leanna

congratulations on your sucess if you have your dear ex hubbies

my daughter is a hair dresser and she checks my hair constantly and i am losing alot so she pushes the protein drink harder. she does say it will grow back eventually until then i have to dust mop the ceramic floor in my bath room every morning of course that in it self reminds drink protein lol
