Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.

Hair loss and weight gain may be due to hypothyroidism. You should check your T3, T4 and TSH level once. If you have hypothyroidism then you need thyroid supplements like synthroid or eltroxin.

If you have normal thyroid then continue your diane according to advise.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
