Vitamin D & Losing weight

So I went to the doctor last week because the last year or so I have been very fatigued. I also have had thinning hair and my nails were peeling. She did a test and apparently my vitamin d levels are abnormally low. I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue and when they started taking the vitamins was it easier to lose weight? I have been having one heck of a time with shedding this weight and I read on the internet that some people had more success after treating the deficiency. I also read that it isn't related and will do nothing in terms of weight loss. Any experiences would be greatly appreciated!! :happy:

    I live in Oregon - the joke is that we're all Vitamin D deficient since we don't see the sun 9 months out of the year. I take a supplement, but i've not noticed it having any affect on my WL.
