Hair loss (search “telogen effluvium”) seems to be inevitable for most people around the 30-40lb loss mark, and it passes whether you keep going or not. Taking the weight loss more slowly helps, but it’s hard to cue your body to consume its internal energy reserves without communicating to any other systems that the external supply is more limited.
