There was a tread I saw that talked about weight loss. In the past year I have lost about
50 lbs. it was great I was looking good. I have noticed more in the two weeks. I got on the scale a few mins. I have lost some more. Now I am freaked I should be 125 for my height. I am at 110. Went to the DR on Thursday and was 120 ~
I don't get it ?? I am eating............ LOL I LOVE MY SWEETS. My Dr. knows and even tested my thyroid. Everything is fine. I am really scared and unsure what to do. I Don't want to lose anymore this is something I have no control over.<<<<<<<
anyone ?
Marina, It could be a ton of different reasons why....Did you just fall in love? Maybe thats it?
Any sudden loss of weight should be reported. You may not be digesting your food properly as a result of pancreatitis? I just read that yesterday cuz of dottie....Are you trying to loose weight or not?

Marina, We are in the same boat, except I am not eating enough. I have no appetite. How tall are you? How long have you been clean? Are you on sub?
When I quit pills for 3 months my appetite still never returned and I lost weight at a rapid pace. What does your Dr. say? I have been on sub for 38 days. At first, all I did was eat sweets. Then, I just stopped wanting anything. I'm 5'2 and weigh 100. Atlas

Marina,
get a full work up and wiversons right get your pancreas checked ( tho you would get a bloated belly with that)
Our metabolism changes every 7 years i hear, so maybe your just going throughyour LEAN years...lucky duck!!!

Hello Marina,
I am glad you brought this up too. My weight has changed so much. I got heavy in my 20's, 3 babies all in a row. Now in my 30's, it startingt coming off. I keep losing weight too. I just had my thyroid checked, I had to do it twice. The first time the results were "borderline". But everything is ok. My husband of 20years, is angry at me. Says I look "sunken in". Everyone else, thinks I look healthy. But I do feel "thin" for me. I am 5' 4 and wear a size 4 or smaller, but I am "huge" up top still lololo. Those won't shrink. Unfortunately, I wish I could get "rid" of the extra skin from having "kids". You sound really tiny. My appetite is not really big. I do like some "sweets". I wonder if this will change as time passes. Take care, Best Wishes

I am 28 i weighed 220 and im down to 185 in the last month coming off the pills. I have only begun to get my appettie back.
See I',m opposite... I've gained almost 40 lbs since I got clean. I'm a real big girl, 6'1, size 13 shoe, 220 lbs on normal day... Well now I"m past 250 and freakin out... I didnt even weigh this much when I had my babies!!! When I first complained about this much unwanted side effect of being sober, someone wrote to me trying to make me smile....
Recovery is Growth.
Okay, I understand that but 40 lbs of growth???
It SOOOOO sucks to be me right now.
The term fat and happy suddenly has new meaning for me..
YUCK

I am 5"4. When I began Sub. last Nov. (04) I was in a size 12 and now I am in
a 2. I eat when I am hungry, I eat what ever I want. Just scary I wonder when
it will stop. I feel healthily, but my family is always making comments.
I know I am eating and taking good care of myself.

It was the same for me, Marina. I never tried to lose it, it just came off and now, yea, I'm too thin. But the doc says I'm healthier than I've been in a long time. Maybe it's our metabloism kicking into high gear after so many years of supressing our bodies systems? That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
