Unable to answer re what is normal for thighs. However, re the diet soda - the main reason would be that any carbonated drink does NOT rehydrate the body.

Trying adding a squeeze of lemon or lime to your water. It livens up the taste. Drinking sparkling or cabonated drinks does not rehydrate your body as they act as a diutetic - you lose more fluid than you take in.

This also happened to me - big weight loss can contribute to hair loss. Also have your Vitamin D levels checked and your oestrogen level as well as your thyroid levels. Low levels of all of these can also cause hair loss. ONe blood sample can be tested for all these. Vitamin D can be replaced by being in the sun for 10…
