It'll all come and you'll probably experience more fluctuations yet. I have been 63kg for as long as I remember, running, healthy eating , detoxing nothing would shift the little that I wanted. Before pregnancy and pretty quickly after THAT 63kg appeared on the scales. When all this first started I was the same within 2 weeks 6kg had gone and I was 57kg I've gone up a kilo thankfully and at 58 now.

It will come back to where your body us happy being for now do as you were and maintain a healthy diet etc and all WILL be ok x

Can be related to stress and poor eating, I no loads of people that have lost weight due to anxiety and stress, unfortunately that hasn't happened for me, when I was stressed I didn't eat because I felt sick, then when I felt abit better I would stuff my face.I'm in the process of losing weight now and healthy eating so fingers crossed I will shift it X x

Hello

Mostly above all the other things you are worrying about stress & anxiety are there at the top of reasons for loosing weight but the anxious mind will not pick that one as the cause it will go straight for the worse scenario causing more anxiety and then more weight loss

Are you eating well or have you been struggling , if it is the latter then you will loose weight

If you are really worried I would speak with your Doctor it will ease your mind :-)

Take Care x

Dont think about it. I was anorexic for best part of nine years. I am healthy weight now and my gp even praised me for maintaining weight. As long as u dont keep putting on and are making tremendous effort to be healthy, dont ever beat yourself up over it.
