Hi.... 2 reccomendations - buy a book called 'change your life in 7 days' by paul mckenna. Its very usefull when you stick to it! Secondly, if your in a relationship you might want to give this a miss.....if your not.....sign up for a free dating site (pof), upload some smiling , happy photos of you with a shaven head...also with and without the beard too!....... mention your military career and come across as a happy, fun, active guy. Then contact a few people and see if they want to chat....you wont get everybody...but nobody ever does! I think you will be pleasantly surprised that bald/balding men can be attractive to women too! Good luck
