Re: losing weight with out trying...
have you had your thyroid checked?
Could be an imbalance. It's pretty common.
Otherwise if you are busy and stressed you might not realize that you haven't been eating a lot.
I wish that would happen to me!

I am trying to figure out if I am eating less over all
my whole lifestyle has changed- I don't sit at a desk for 8 hours and on the bus for 2
I am always on the go
but I will get my thyroid checked

Re: losing weight with out trying...
if you're not sitting all day long and burning more, it could definitely be what's happening.
How much have you lost?

Re: losing weight with out trying...
that could be the reason
I have lost about 10 to 12 lbs
and 2 sizes (I am short)
it doesn't sound like alot but it's almost 10% of my weight
and I have never been the size I am with out seriously trying and even then it would last less then 1 week
I feel fine, alittle more stressed then normal

2 months
it's noticable
I just came from my Aunt and Uncle's house and my Uncle noticed and is concerned
I am def stressed- at my new job the outcome of what I do matters a million times more then when I used to pick artwork for plates or colors for the handles of can openers
I didn't even realize the effect it's having on me until the drive home from SI- I was thinking about ways to save my clients house for 45 minutes
I went from developing products people don't need to working with people about to lose their homes- big change- bigger then I think I realized

Re: losing weight with out trying...
Holy moly Beth, it sounds like me.
hell I'm trying to gain weight not lose it.
I think for me is out of stress and life changes that make me not eat as much as i'm supposed to.

 you need to take better care of yourself. Take a day or two off to destress and map out a plan to take care of yourself.
Your health is not worth this at all.

Re: losing weight with out trying...
That happened to me once - 30lbs in 3 months without any significant lifestyle changes, except that I had started dating DH and was preparing to move in with him which I guess was pretty stressful. I got my thyroid checked to make sure all was okay and I was fine.
Go to the doctor just to be on the safe side.

Re: losing weight with out trying...
I think you should go to the doctor and have your thyroid checked, but I wouldn't be suprised if it is the fact you are not sitting as much in combination with stress. When I stress I lose weight rapidly.

Re: losing weight with out trying...
thanks everyone
I am going to go to the doctor and get blood work done
I am totally stressed- I didn't realize it until this weekend - and this is just the begining - starting in January I am going to be swamped when my company is 100% up and running
I need to talk to my boss about NOT processing my own clients deals- it's too much on me once I have a relationship with the people- I was having dreams about a client this weekend (but in the dream I saved there house at least)

Re: losing weight with out trying...
Stress will def. cause weight loss!!! I can speak from personal experience. I had major stress in my life (skin cancer, and constant trips to derm. surgeons for laser revisions...but the skin cancer doesn't cause weight loss), and lost all my preggo weight and then some (down to 103 lbs).
I am also on the go with two kids now, so I run around all the time.
I would get your MD to do a full blood panel and get everything checked out just to put your mind at ease.
