i hate to say this but one of my friends kept on losing weight and it turned out she had diabetes type one. I definitely hope this isn't the case.

My PCP keeps running all types of labs, including fasting blood sugars and A1C. So, diabetes doesn't seem to be the culprit.

I have hypothyroidism, but the panels are normal every time on 50mcg of Synthroid.

All my blood work is normal, no matter what he tests me for, and he's pretty creative.

We decided that the weight loss is related to my mental health issues, but right now I'm more stable than I have been in about 10yrs. and I haven't done any exercising since the bed sore. And I can easily eat my husband under the table.

I usually only weight myself once a week, but I need to keep an eye on this. I weighed myself today at the same time I did yesterday and I lost another lb. If I go down to a total of 10lb I'll make another appt with my PCP. At this point, I'm still at a healthy weight.
