Yes Pitski - it set in after about three months, and lasted about another three. It was scary - literally came out in handfuls. It is now growing through and I have an under frizz of new floofy hair about three to four inches long (this is now 15 months after my bypass). I found the experience quite sobering as so many people lose their hair from cancer treatment, all of it! Who was I to complain about a bit of thinning. Try not to wash your hair more than once a week, and no brush it - just combe through after washing with a tangleteezer.
Frankie - fashion! I am so pleased you are now embracing the excitement of clothes, rather than feeling daunted. I love your heels experience! So been there - I do have a few pairs now but they really are 'cartobar' tho one pair of platform wedges are my best friends now, and I don't feel as if I will fall off them anymore! I think once we have lived through each season once as a 'thin' person, it will get easier. I was a mad shopping woman over the spring and summer as every item in my (extensive!) wardrobe had to be replaced. Last winter I was a 16/18 and able to wear some of the bigger bits without it looking too huge. Not this winter, as even a 14 looks massive sometimes. Talking of which - had a brilliant NSV yesterday in Zara! Saw a lovely linen jumper with scoop neck (important with new cleavage-ness!) and lace inset in the lower sleeve. Gorgeous and under twenty quid. Thought must get as only a few left on the rack. Couldn't decide which size so picked an L, and an S ... Then found an M ... Bought all three to return the two that didn't fit - thinking it would be the M and the S ...but blow me down, I'm returning the M and the L! Wooooooo!
