I know this subject has been discussed plenty of times but please stick with me: Hairloss..
I am absolutely mortified...I have very long hair and it is my pride and joy, the only thing I like about myself (yep, no self confidence at all..)
Now, for the past few weeks I have lost so much hair and I am close to tears every day. I even stopped washing it as often as I normally would just because of how much comes out. It doesn't come out in klumps but it is terrifying. I even counted them today and I think from washing and brushing I lost about 200...I know between 80 and 120 is normal but that is so much. I am typing this close to tears. My CDC is lovely but doesn't understand what my hair means to me. She says just cut if until it has grown back and you'll be fine but I can't cut it..would be like cutting off and arm or something.
The hairloss started about 4 weeks ago when I got ready for my holiday and a weekend of eating and drinking..didn't overdo it but haven't been able to stick to SS properly since. Still loosing weight so that is not the issue but I am now so panicked that I am thinking of giving up CD and trying something else...would break my heart too because it worked so well for me and just over 5 stone are gone with about 4.5 more to go...
Please, has any of you got any advice for me? I really need some help with this..
Sorry for being all pathetic but I just feel very bad right now..
thanks guys...
