Wondering if anyone with insulin resistance and the resultant hair loss lost weight and experienced any regrowth?

    I have PCOS and hypothyroidism (been on medication for 25 years) I have lost 20 lbs over 5 months and just started Crossfit this week. It can be done, but just a little slower. You need to remember you are not in competition with anyone but yourself! There was 8 weeks I did not lose anything, but didn't gain either. Then I changed my way of eating and now the weight is falling off. With Crossfit I hope to gain muscle to burn the fat at a more consistent rate. I also take a vitamin B supplement daily to help with my metabolism.
