What should be the D3 weekly dose and weight loss

I am Hep b. I am on TAF sine last one and half month. My D3 level is 30 iu/ml. I am going to take 60000 iu/ml D3 weekly dose. Is it fine to take it weekly. Also I am taking one hour sun daily.

My major concern is I am losing weight. I don't understand what is the cause. I lost significant weight. Mainly thigh area, heap and butt. I litterly feel the difference.

Does any one faced this issue. Will there be any other cause? What should I do to gain weight. I am eating well. Taking 2 eggs every other day. Please guide me

The safe upper limit for D3 is 4000 IU a day. I think 60,000 a week is way too much to take. I got some information somewhere that it is better to take in small doses each day. I would not take 60000 IU a week. Instead take no more than 4000 a day.

People who have Hepatitis B tend to gain weight because their liver is not working well. If your liver is improving your metabolism will increase and you may burn more fat. The weight loss may be the result of natural improvement of liver function.

How many calories per day do you eat?
