Why have you lost so much weight so quickly? Have you had bariatric surgery?\n\nLosing 209 pounds (95kg), which would correspond to a greater than 10% loss in a short amount of time (in under three months), is NOT steady loss of weight, and could be considered excessive. Even people who've had bariatric surgery ("stomach stapling") usually don't lose weight that quickly. \n\nIf you haven't already, you should confer again with your physician, very soon, and you need to talk about your eating habits, openly. I would not rely on this forum for  health information. Your excessive weight loss could be any number of things. A good physician will not give medical advice online, without speaking to you and examining you in person.

yes i think it probably is stress related, i am just the same, i feel starving, then after a few mouthfuls thats it, cant get another down, and that only happens when i'm stresssed, worried etc.  Glad it's not just me!  At last we wont end up 20 stone, he he

Why would you feel sick?  Are you cutting back your portions too much?  You can't go from one extreme to the other when trying to control your weight.  Maybe you should get some help:\n\nOvereaters Anonymous:\nhttp://www.oa.org

He Dr! Stop worrying about your health and wt. etc. Just be normal, eat normal (Every thing God had created to eat). You will enjoy life.\nBest of Luck.

Yeah, it's just because you've gone too long without eating.  Just force yourself to eat something and you'll feel better.

Why are you worried about losing weight now? Enjoy life. If kids pick on you, beat them up or just ignore them. You are too young to be worrying about your weight unless your weight is a health risk.

Are your friends maybe concerned because you lost all that weight in a very short ammount of time? maybe they are questioning how healthy it is for you. If you yourself are concerned that your out of control then maybe let your docter know how your dieting has come along and let he or she be the judge

Hi! This is Sandra,  Im sorry you are having such a tough time  But I have to tell ya straight up and out STOP IT  can u imagine what u are going to turn into?  Now its only 70lbs think about the future, the way you feel when its time to get dressed for a function or heck just to go to the store  Large people have a hard time dressing not to mention all the health issues that are gonna appear  I believe if when your thinking about food you need to distract yourself  "PRAY" do something  nobody can do it for you  but I do know that there are many people that feel your pain  The only way I can lose weight is to starve my self and I dont recommend it, its very bad for your body  You have to kick that bad "HABIT"  to the curb "YOU" must change your ways or be a fatso  that is the cold hard truth  Get some friends or loved ones to promote you and make a commitment to yourself and your health   k  GOOD LUCK

how did you lose it? how much did you lose, and how much did you weigh before?\n\nif what you lost was primarily water weight, you probably will gain it back, unfortunately.\n\nif you exercise and cut back on calories and stop, you will gain it back.\n\nbut if you continue, you should be able to maintain your new weight!\n\ngood luck.

It sounds like you already have anorexia.  You need to see a doctor and get this treated.  Being scared to death to gain weight is a sign of trouble.  See your doctor before something serious happens.  Without getting this treated there is a chance you could die from health complications.  Karen Carpenter a famous singer of the Carpenters died of complications from Anorexia so get some help.

I recently lost 40 lbs.  I used to feel compelled to finish what I had on my plate.  Especially if it tasted good!  But STOP when you're satisfied, not when you're full.  Exercise, even if it means parking farther away at the grocery store, or using stairs instead of elevators.  Don't give up & binge on sweets and fatty foods.  Snack on pretzel sticks,which are fat free, raw veggies, or chew gum. \nGood Luck!!\n:)

whoa!!!\n\nI know how that feels.. :(\n\nLimit your food intake and try to exercise. Walking or jogging would help a bit... \n\nAnd I'm not sure if it's healthy, but whenever I feel like I gained a lot of weight and I want to stop it, I try to drink at least 2 glasses of water before each meal to trick my stomach into "thinking" that I'm full, that way I won't eat a lot... It does work.\n\nJust don't do it habitually.

Sounds like you might have a eating disorder. It's never a good idea to starve yourself. You need food to keep up with your exercising for energy. It's never a good idea to beinge diet anyways you seem to gain it all back sooner or later so i've heard. Just be careful and take good care of yourself. Drink plenty of water... and eat food!

You are not overweight.  But you do need to see a doctor as you admit you have an eating problem, please get it checked out before it gets worse...;

As people have said before, stress but what hasn't been mentioned is that weight loss can do the same. I recently lost quite a bit of weight and until I gained it back my period came every other month. If this continues on to your next period its a good sign that you have lost too much weight and is your body's way of saying you have to gain it back. Whether stress, weight loss, or something else, good luck!

eat less and exercise more.  of course, it needs to be a change that you can keep doing the rest of your life so that you dont gain it back once you start back to your old lifestyle.  i dont recommend diet pills because once youre off of them you gain the weight right back.
