Body Changes

[Janice]

Have you ever discovered something really changing about your body, except the change in shape and pain, as you get older.

In the past year, my hair has turned curly. The bangs curl up all the time. I hate it. I always had extremely straight hair. I think it may be a hormone problem.

Don't get me started! My hair started to turn gray in my late 30's ....now it's white!

I've lost 4 1/2" in height....and I'm still shrinking! Just started a new medicine for Osteoporosis that I have to inject each day...argh!..........p

(And my head thinks I'm still young!)

[Janice]

Oh, that is so sad. I have never heard of that much height loss.

I've already had a few gray hairs, and I'm only 22...I hope this isn't a sign, I like my hair.

At 25... I've noticed my hair is starting to get more body.... Its been straight as an arrow ever since birth.... and I'm not getting as much acne as I had when I was a teen

The worse thing Shannon is when you get a zit right on top of a wrinkle. Now that's just not fair.
Pam, I'm with you, my mind says I'm young and my body just won't cooperate. The doctor says I'm 5'1" and I know he must be mistaken cause I've always been 5'3". The bad thing is my weight has not decreased as my height keeps diminishing!
Janice my straight hair is also getting a little curl to it. My Mom used to say if I ate the crusts off my bread that my hair would curl so I did. I just didn't know it would take 60 years!!

I have to agree. I always thought there would be at least a few good years between the zit stage and the wrinkle stage!!

I haven't started shrinking yet, but due to the fact that I hate milk I can only assume it is coming......

As for the straight hair, mine is still poker straight (and yes, I got that line about the crusts too!!).
