Rapid weight loss !

[Sar89]

Ok so about 6 weeks ago I weighed in at 9.12 I'm 5.2 so maybe getting a bit chunky... U had an argument with a person I have became close to an lost some weight went to 9.7 maybe stress related I thought... However I am in thailand on holiday and I weigh a grand total of 8.8 !!!! Haven't weighed this since I was about 17/18 an to be honest it's not a very good look on me I tend to lose weight on my arms an chest area so I look really crap but still have a pot belly ! I am really worried about this weight loss as it is dramatic ... I can't get to a doctor till I get home on Monday morning. The past 3-4 days iv had a really off tummy aswell with diarrhea (sorry tmi) but not vomiting or nausea so not food poisoning. Guess I'm just seeking reassurance here

It could be that the diarhorea is causing the weight loss combined with a different diet over in Thailand and the heat - sweat causes weight loss.
My brother did three months in SE Asia and lost a fair bit of weight cause of the change in diet etc.
Go see your doc to check all is okay but I reckon a combination of stress and other factors is causing it.

I lost a fair bit of weight since I moved but just didn't realise how much my diet has changed and I was exercising more - it's something you probably wouldn't notice at all unless you had HA!!

Yes I agree, probably anxiety. I've lost a fair amount of weight over the past few months, because I'm not that interested in food, and what I do eat is being used up by my nervousness.

Hey thanks for replies ... I deffo would of noticed this weight loss if I was anxious or not cos its over a stone ! Lot of a weight for someone who is 5.2 really. I have thought it was all the sweating .. It's a very sweat inducing country !! Iv only been here 11 days tho .. I dunno I guess I just really want to go home now xx
