weight fluctuates for everyone - and as you are on a re-feeding programme you are getting the right advice to help you gain weight sensibly. Suggest you talk to your therapist/dietician about the drop just to put your mind at rest. Water retention/loss is also a factor - and with this hot weather it may be that the weight loss = less water retained in your body. Hope this helps and good luck with the recovery.
