Why am I losing a lot of weight but eating a lot everyday?

Answer by  monkeyz (3150)

Some serious medical conditions can cause dramatic weight loss regardless of how much you eat. My first thoughts would be to check for digestive disorders that would prevent absorption of nutrition, such as celiac or crohn's disease. Another possibility is an over-active thyroid gland.

Nothing is wrong with you. You just have a high metabolism. Try eating more foods that are high in protein and including plenty of good carbs in your diet.

Just because you are eating a lot, doesn't mean that you should gain weight, as perhaps you are eating foods which are low in fat and calories, and healthy for you. In addition, if you are burning off more calories than you are putting into your body, this could also explain it.

At your age, there is probably nothing wrong with you. You just may have a fast metabolism which enables you to burn calories quickly on a daily basis.
