Just my edges in front. It's frustrating because I have rally long dreadlocks and I'd like to not have to cut them. So far pin up styles & headbands have helped. Biotin and hair Vitamins haven't really made a difference.

This honestly is the most embarrassing thing ever to me I cannot get my hair back almost seems as if I'm bald on top so I'm thinking of maybe getting extensions but I don't know how they would look

I take Iron folic acid and Biotin nothing is different

This is what I do and it doesn't come out as much. My daughter is a hairdresser and she always tells me to stop washing my hair every day. I now wash my med. shower length hair every 3 days. I will wash on the 1st day dry it spray each strand before I curl it with hairspray and then throw my head over and blow dry some of the curl out. I then add hair volumizer ( can purchase some from walmart) and shake it all over my head. Do not try and curl or brush your hair after adding the volumizer. I then pick it where needed and for the next 2 days I don't even touch it with a brush or comb I just throw my head over and blow dry again. use a pick where needed and add a little hairspray and do this again on day 3. I do not have near the amount of hair coming out like I would if I washed my hair more often. I get so many complements on my hair now and I am not freaking out about Hair loss. By the way my hair is very thin and by doing these steps my dr. made the comment he was not concerned about my hair loss because I had a lot of hair! lol Little does he know. hahaha I am only brushing it 1 out of 3 days so that is what is helping. Good luck.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
