Congrats! You look great!

TE (telegen effluvium) is part of severe calorie restriction and quick weight loss. Mine is finally growing back. I'm 2+ years out.

I eat all low fat proteins on the planet except soy for the most part. And most of my protein is animal based rather than plant based, although I do eat 1+ lbs of veg per day and there is some amount of protein in those plants.

The ones I love:

eggs/egg whites

2% cottage cheese

non fat Greek yogurt

Premier Protein in coffee = proffee lattes

Fairlife Core Power Chocolate blended with ice and nonfat Greek yogurt to make a milkshake

tuna in pouch (water packed)

salmon in pouch (water packed)

sardines in water

Boar's Head Turkeys + Lacey Swiss roll-ups/wraps

Oscar Meyer Naturals Ham

tuna salad made with pouch tuna + cottage cheese + hb egg + green onion + dijon + vlasic dill relish

salmon

shrimp

basa fillets

chicken breasts

turkey cutlets

ground turkey

ground chicken

pork loin/tenders

lean beef

90/10 ground beef

ribeye steak trimmed of visible fat

turkey pepperoni

turkey sausage

venison all cuts

lamb lean cuts

reduced fat cheeses

fresh mozzarella

nuts/seeds/nut butters

nonfat Fairlife milk
