Sometime back my doctor got concerned that I might be a borderline case of PCOS ( I had irregular periods and mild hirsutism aling with difficulty in losing weight) and I got the tests done but they were all clear. I was under lots of stress, still am and Ive been taking antidepressants like
Escitalipram and topiramate for the last five years. I've stopped them now. I got my thyroid profile done and all readings were within range.
I have always been under-weight. Now I am 27, but my weight is only 110 lbs. I don't have a good apetite and my digestion is also slow. Everywhere you hear about losing weight these days, but is there any way to put on some weight? If so, how?
I'm under weight and for some reason keep loosing weight and I don't know why.
I accumulated crazy belly fat around my upper ribs. I assume it's high cortisol because I was under alot of stress and didn't eat alot and lost weight. But I gained weight around my belly while losing the weight. I tried losing the belly fat, but it wouldn't budge. All I did was lose weight everywhere else. So... I tried rotated through different herbs to lower cortisol, like Rhodiola, Ashwagandha, Holy Basil. It made me have more anxiety.
Your Thyroid could be not working properly. I was losing my hair & gaining weight rapidly & found out that my Thyroid was to blame. That is why I take a synthetic hormone for my thyroid now.
I've stopped gaining the weight but before we had discovered what was causing all of my problems I went from a healthy 150lbs to an unhealthy 360lbs in about 6months time. Now that we have me on the synthyroid.
It's usually water weight, which is normal. It can fluctuate a lot. Unless your Dr is concerned, I would not worry about your weight. Just eat healthy and take the prenatals.
Have you been depressed, doing more activities than normal, are you under any stress, do you have any other symtoms besides just losing weight? That's good that you had a blood test and that it came out fine. Not sure what else it could be!
Hello, I wanted to know what kind of diet pill I can take for losing weight?
It depends on what your starting weight is and the way you are losing it. If you have a higher starting weight and you are losing weight because you are eating healthier and exercising than your okay. If your doctor says its okay, you should be fine. Plus you have more than half your pregnancy ahead of you to gain some of that weight back. Don't stress, i am sure you'll be fine.
I'm 15weeks with twins and haven't gained a pound! I've actually lost like 5! My Dr said it's normal and unless ur under weight at the start u and baby should be fine!
Yep I'm 39 w. And 10 lbs under my pre pregnancy weight.
Normally I can lose weight easily but I have a really hard time maintaining my weight under stress so I always fluctuated between 130lbs-150lbs. Any tips or suggestions for losing weight quickly? I would like to lose 10lbs by Christmas because I will be on vacation. Right now my plan is to eat smaller meals & do yoga 5x a week & 30 mins of cardio 5x a week.
