Christine,

Sorry for the delayed reply. I don't know how I missed this comment. Congratulations on your weight loss also!

Thanks for the support. Insanity was INSANE! My hectic work schedule has given me ample excuses not to start again but I'm hoping to hit again soon.

I used to be a huge treadmill fan. Funny thing is I can't run 100 yards on the street.

Tom60,

Thanks! Although I did start out in a very unhealthy way, I finished the job by eating right and exercising and I really feel that I'm in the best shape of my life right now.

I do believe that improper nutrition can have a negative effect on hair but I don't think I had any more hair loss during that time. I didn't begin losing the weight until after my first hair transplant and I had already begun minoxidil and finasteride and was also taking nutritional supplements, vitamins, etc.

All the best!
