Hello all!
I've got photos from today for you!
I think I'm about 11 months along, from a buzz cut. It just occurred to me that I'm wearing the same shirt I wore in my last photos here. If I remember right, someone thought I looked like a country singer. It was probably because of the shirt. Oh well, I'm not country. But, I like the shirt! :)
You should know that this is a real sacrifice for me. I don't like having my picture taken. It's because I don't like my self image (duh). Many years of being overweight has brought me to this. Believe it or not, I've lost 70 lbs. So, this is me looking good compared to a few years ago. Although now I'm beginning to see how old I'm looking. If you're young, enjoy it! Old age creeps up on you fast.
I also wanted to restore/update my avatar and name. I've gotten a little tired of the "Banana" thing. I'm switching to my real name as soon as the paperwork goes through. Soon I'll be DavidH.
Highest regards,
DavidH (aka: Banana)
Hi David,
A great update there and you hair is looking in great condition and lovely to see the natural waves.
I must have been doing something right this summer as I've lost a couple of stone in weight myself (metric I don't know or care lol).
Cheers,
John.B
Thanks for the compliments John.
That is freaky, my name is David.H(inds)
Good update
DavidH
Thanks David. I KNOW! There's lots of us out there.
David you look great!
It amazes me how much hair one can grow in about a year. Your hair looks great on your handsome self. Congrats on the weight loss too. You look terrific regardless of age. Self esteem can lag behind transformation. Enjoy your new image.
Don
Thanks Don. I hope you're right. I'm eager to have some more esteem (and steam :) ).
Hi David,
WOW! ANOTHER David, it is hard to keep track of us all, there are SO many Davids aroung here! But your hair looks great, that is amazing progress from a buzzcut in only 11 months, and congratulations on the weight loss!
Keep it growing,
One of the MANY Davids on the hyperboard!
Thanks David. It's good to here from you.
Hey Banana, or should I say, David,
What a great update! Your hair looks very healthy and has some great wave to it. Also, your hair color looks awesome. Congrats on making it this far so far. In another month, you'll hit the one year mark. Definitely a milestone to be proud of. Take care and keep it growing, David
~Chris H
Thanks for the kind words Chris. Yours are always appreciated.
Hey DavidH! I was actually wondering when you would make an official update:)
You've made some great progress for 11 months, do you have any goal length you're aiming for?
Take care!
Simon
I'm aiming for a mid-back length. Thanks for the encouragement.
love the hair and I must say you have got some gorgous eyes! (must be a David thing, not that I'm biased or anything...) And defintely gratz in losing 70lbs! I've struggled with my weight most of my life too and I've recently only lost around 20 lbs and I KNOW how tough that can be, 70lbs is amazing!
Thanks for the encouragement!
Hey DavidH, great update. In just 11 months from a buzzcut...wow! Looking fine. You've got very fast growth. Keep up the good work.
Cheers,
Max
Thanks Max!
Wow, that's a lot of hair from 11 months! Looks great, and congrats on the weight loss. I don't think you look old at all, but the shirt does look country. I like those with the snap buttons on them especially, now that's straight out of the 70's.
Yep. I used to have a few of those in the 70's. Thanks for the compliments.
Hello DavidH
If I may say a great update and my congrats on the weight loss no easy task. I also agree with you your somments to the young ones.
Enjoy yourselves as old age creeps up on you, or in some cases it runs up to you from behind and jumps on you. LOL
Kevin
Thanks Kevin.
Oy! Another "David". Seems to ne a lot on the hyperboard. For 11 months from a buzzcut, you are doing very well. I lost 70 lbs, from my highest weight ever, 40 lbs ober the past year, still losing, though it is a slow and steady loss for me. I didn't actually plan on it, it just simply happened, after switching to a whole-grain, high-fiber diet, and following the principles laid forth in "The ZONE". Don't have a goal weight, I'm just letting my body decide how far it wants to go, for the time being.
Carol
I enjoyed your photos Carol. You have a very kind face. Sorry I wasn't able to compliment you at the time. I was going through something difficult. Blessings!
Looking good, David! That's a lot of hair for 11 months. I shall think of you as "Banana" for a while longer I suspect...
Mouse
Thanks! I've been thinking lots of good hair thoughts to make it grow fast.
Great photos to be sure and your hair is looking great! And as for the "old" part, just wait until you catch up to me. Bet you can't remember when Lincoln was President. Oh, how I long for those days............of course without that War.
Best of luck to you.
Oh, he was my favorite too! LOL Thanks for the Compliment.
Looking Excellent David, the length is really coming on and you certainly look happy in those pics. Congratulations for not giving in! (nice shirt btw, yeee-hawwww).
Nutjob
