I lost weight... but I am not trying to! :/
18/f
I'm a really active girl. I work out 3 times a week. 5' 7". My normal weight is around 125-130, but I went to the doctor today to get my college physical done for the fall and they marked my weight at 117!!! I lost a lot of weight and even my dad has noticed it. I'm starting to get a little scared.. my dad thinks I have an eating disorder because I don't eat a lot of food. I'm not trying to lose weight, nor have an eating disorder.. i just dont' know what's wrong with me. When I do eat, I eat a few bites and then I feel full after a few minutes. Most of the time, I can't finish meals because I feel so full. There have been times in the past few weeks when after i've eaten, i've felt so sick and nauseous. Like i needed to throw up or go poop. I took tums and alka seltzer but they didn't really help those times. I just don't know what's wrong with me. I'm not sick with the flu or anything. I feel great. I just don't understand why i'm losing weight?? I try to fatten myself up and eat a bunch but that's why I feel nauseous.
What is going on and how do i fix it?

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
We are not doctors and cannot diagnose or prescribe. Even if we were to diagnose and prescribe over the web would be very dangerous.
While you were having your physical did you mention this to your doctor? Did your doctor say anything about your weight loss? To loose 8 pounds is not a dramatic weight loss. Your other symptoms may or may not be something that needs to be of great concern. Only your doctor can say for sure.
Make another appointment with your doctor and ask the doctor what you have asked us. This is the only true and correct way to find out if you have something to worry about.
Just because one of the advisers may have had something similar symptoms does not mean your symptoms will have to same diagnoses or test results so so your doctor.
