Sing with me!
I've got a vitamin deficiency, de de de de Look at how my hair is falling out, dum dum dum dum Big clumps, small clumps, some the size of your hand!
I promise I am not being flippant. I started my weight loss journey with the approval of my GP. Ive been doing CICO since January. I've been focusing on my macros and eating as many nutrient rich foods as I can within my calorie allowance which is 1,200kcal and up to 1,500 on days that I do cardio. I have also been taking a multi vitamin. I do, however, have a sensitivity to vitamin A and cannot take supplements for that and have to watch my intake.
However over the last two weeks my hair has started falling out. I've put a link in the comments. I had an appointment yesterday and the GP expects it is a vitamin deficiency. Vitamin A, actually. I had bloods taken (a few days for results), and he suggested that I stick with what I'm doing until we know the results. If it turns out to be vitamin A I have a few specialists I need to consult before I can purposefully add any kind of supplement to my diet.
The moral of my story? Listen to your body!!! You might think you're doing everything right. You may be working closely with a health professional. You may be really chuffed with your progress. But if your hair is falling out, or your energy levels tank, or something else Red Flag-y happens, have it checked out. There's only one you, be kind to yourself.
Lots of love!
