Low vitamin D and calcium levels

Rusk27

Hi, I initially started on this sight around the beginning of the year but got really discouraged after a couple of weeks because there were no positive results, I would stay where I was or gain a pound then lose. After my yearly check-up I found out that my vitamin D and calcium levels were way below the recommended standards. My Dr. suggested supplements and daily walks out in the sunshine for about 15 min without sunscreen. So after getting that under control I started up with myfitnesspal again and am seeing really good results. Anyone else out there have this problem?

I was told yesterday that my Vitamin D is low. My doctor said this is becoming more prevalent with people working indoors and not getting much (if any) sun exposure. I'm getting supplements today. I also didn't know that symptoms are fatigue, weight gain and hair loss.
