filling out, gaining weight


Question Posted Sunday May 22 2011, 11:06 am

recently, i've started losing weight. about four months ago, i was 112 lbs and my dress size was 3. now, i'm 100 lbs and a 1.

to be perfectly, honest, this is really scaring me. i'm not on a diet. i'm not doing anything different. i eat when i'm hungry and don't eat when i'm not. the only thing i have noticed is that my appetite isn't as excessive as it used to be. i'm not ALWAYS hungry, and when i am, i don't eat as much as i used to. i don't know whats wrong. and because of this, i'm rather rapidly losing weight. i'm bony and tiny and i just look horrible! my friends are even wondering if i'm purposely not eating. my family thinks i'm anorexic. on top of all this, i can't dress how i want since i look awkward and bony now. i have to wear baggy clothes, everything hangs off of me like a bag.

a) what is happening to me? b) how can i gain some weight? quick?

It's either a metabolic issue or diabetes. In either case you need to see a doctor right away. Diabetes is a weird disease in that it can manifest itself even when you aren't grossly overweight. Usually, there is some kind of genetic predisposition for it in one or both of your parents.

Don't overthink this because then you really could end up with an eating disorder. Get to a doctor.
