From Claire, Age 18 - 05/19/07 - IP#: 64.131.205.xxx Click here to reply Ht. 5'4", Start: 210 lb, Today: 162 lb, Goal: 130 lb - I haven't been here in like 3-4 days and I'd like to have posted that in those days I lost weight and was doing SUPER WELL! but unfortunately not. As I mentioned earlier this week I was sick the whole entire week and today was the day where I found myself recovering and getting better ...although the weahter still sucks! Hot and then cold. It's ridiculous and my allergies really kicked in. Anyway, I don't know if this is diet related or maybe so...but is anyone losing hair? I find myself going bald and I'm totally freaking out. I told my mom to put oil on my scalp today because I heard oil makes your hair stronger. I haven't been drinking a lot of water but that was just recently. I've been losing hair for over a year now and it's only getting worse. Does anyone lose hair here? if not...to the people with healthy hair, how do you keep your hair healthy? Ok well since I'm feeling better...I'll be back on track tomorrow. I'm saying tomorrow because it's like 10:40 pm right now and I'm about to go to bed. Long post! long post! long post alert! sorry I'll take my leave now.

Reply from Emily, Age 15 - 05/20/07 - IP#: 68.151.224.xxx Whoa crazy i was just looking this up before i read your post...it said whenever your body expereinces a metabolic change (which has obviously happened since you have lost weight) it causes stress on your body and your hair can come out (nails can weaken as well). Apparently this is more likely in a lower carbohydrate diet. Some advice i read was to start taking fibre supplements and make sure you take a daily multivitamin. I know its freaky but don't worry, its not going to last forever.
Reply from K.L.K, Age 19 - 05/20/07 - IP#: 70.152.214.xxx You could be losing hair because of some defiency in your diet. I don't mean your diet plan, but Im talking about the foods your eating, or not eating. You may be lacking something in your diet. Try a supplement/Vitamin with Vitamin E in it.
