I think you nailed it! Thanks! .... 95 lbs... 20 lbs under. Fighting to maintain; let alone gain.

I quit my desk job 6 months ago and have lost 25 lbs and dropped 3 dress sizes without actually trying. I don't feel unwell otherwise and I eat, so I'm going to accept this as a lifestyle change. The human body was meant to move.

Wow, great stuff. I have unintentionally lost 25# in the last 7 months, almost entirely muscle. I was skinny to start with, down to 153#. Still working out, and playing golf. Doing the Jonathan OTTO protocol to reset my gut biome, cleanse the parasites and hope that helps. Leukemia survivor . All bloodwork and thyroid normal. Cut gluten, dairy, sugar and prepackaged foods for the last 11 weeks. Learned a lot in your video.

I had a tattoo infection in 2014, and was given bactrim. I went to the ER 24 hours later feeling like i was having a sever reaction to the med. They told me to tough it out and stay on it.
Not long after, i began losing weight and was diagnosed with SFN and POTS.
I started at 205 lbs, and went to 180 in 6 weeks, then 170 after about 3 mos. Now im 160, nine years later and i eat constantly.
No doctors can figure it out. It actually seems like they have no interest in figuring it out.
Ive seen Dr.'s at some of the best hospitals and they just think the infection caused a neurological autoimmune issue.
Our medical system is scary

Thank you doctor. I'm from India. I had embarked on a weight loss journey in July '23, when I weighed 91 kgs (approx 198 lbs). And by 1st April '24, I had lost 10 kg or 22 lbs. Was very happy. But then, I lost another 22 lbs by July 24 i.e. in 3 months, without any additional effort. Did a USG, blood work and even PET CT scan. All are clean (except for a long standing subclinical hypothyroidism). I am scared now.... though I've more or less stabilised at 71 kg (157 lbs) over the past 3 weeks. Testing for H.Pylori soon.

I wanted to ask if non-disease cachexia can be reversed. To put in perspective, I've also lost adipose tissue fat.

Thank you for the advice. I have been losing weight which is unplanned. I will find out what's causing it. My appetite has not been affected so I pray it's nothing serious

Very interesting and insightful, however you didn't mention Diabetes type II as a cause of weight loss.🎉🎉

My lack of sleep during the past five years has been caused by a new, stressful work that I started five years ago. Another thing to notice is that my girlfriend and I moved in together about the same time she had a 10-year history of weight loss. I have undergone a complete physical examination, but they were unable to identify the reason for my 40-pound weight drop. Could you please tell me on what could be causing my weight loss all over my body?

Great video! So I have lost about 6-7 pounds unexpectedly and I literally have no energy most of the day and sometimes lack of focus throughout the day. Currently weigh 159lbs and I’m 5’9
Not experiencing any pain but no matter how much I eat, I cannot gain weight.
In the past 6 months, My blood work showed everything was fine except for low Vitamin D and high coristiol levels.
I also had a thyroid TSH blood test with my endocrinologist and the results came back OK.

Any recommendations on what I should do next to stop this weight loss and gain weight back?

[felicia]

Thank you doctor for you precious information. I will avoid lectins. I have adrenal insufficiency, morning serum cortisol 10.6 μg/dL, losing weight, tanning, lethargic. I just notice that my bathroom wall has mold. That is the place where I hang my wet towel. Now I take Saccharomyces boulardii twice a day to fight fungus infections. I also take grapefruit seed extract to fight a candida infection. Am I on the right track?

I am diagnosed with Hiatal Hernia & GERD two month ago. I lost 5 to 7 kgs now. So Is this can be the reason of my unintentional weight loss?

[jaishrijetwani]

hello sir my husband lost nearly 8 kgs weight nd he become very skinny...did all tests like endoscopy colonoscopy blood test sugar test thyroid...everything is normal..eating very healthy diet but not gaining

[wyndiefeatherstone]

I am surprised you didn't mention diabetes. One of my friends husband began losing weight and found out he was an untreated diabetic. I myself have lost about 1 pound a day over this past week without trying. I been considered pre diabetic for several years but got caught up in snacking on sweets in our home. One month ago I had a severe cramp in my foot while sleeping and I stood up beside my bed to try to work the cramp out. The next thing I knew I was falling backwards in a dead fall smashing my back on the edge on my night stand. I was in horrific pain and at my waist on the left side I had very bad bruising on my back. A trip to the hospital showed 3 fractured vertebrae. I have been pretty much on bedrest since then, cutting out all sweet snacks. Over this past week I have seen myself lose about 1 pound a day, which is making me nervous. I love losing weight but have the feeling it may have to do with the injury and may be diabetes related. I am at this point of not knowing what to eat because I also have kidney disease stage 3 and I am not sure what I can eat to help with both conditions. Trying to get in to see a doctor here is a nightmare since the past pandemic. Next week I will see my primary care doctor for the first time and I have been waiting for 6 months just to see him. I was given the name of a kidney doctor here in Los Angeles and tried to see him but he is a "concierge doctor"
that basically takes no insurance and you have to pay a large yearly fee to "JOIN HIS PRACTICE!" I worked for doctors for years but this was a first for me!
Anyway I am still losing weight and don't know why.

[shoff]

I lost 10-15 lbs in about 1.5 months or less. I eat a little different, my big meal in morning instead of night and just snack now at night. No intention to lose weight, just get acid reflux under control. And now I’m nervous lol

Thank you Dr. Pierce for this informative video.

Hello sir, i am 53 yr old female, lost ard 6 to 8 kg slowly since 6 yrs. On thyroxine for 10 yrs with good control. I am superfit with my regular yoga and walking. No symptoms pertaining to any system. Was scared and did a whole body CT scan and scopies and bl tests and everything was normal.
Initially it was rewarding, but nowadays i am labelled "emaciated" by people who saw me previously.
I eat two meal a day n fast for 12 to 13 hrs daily . This i do with passion. My fitness levels are great.
Anything you suggest?

i slept one night, and i woke up the next morning feeling like i lost some memory, my body was slow to react, but i was ok, no pain, but i felt a bit weak, and sometimes head ache, and now have lost weight, my urine got a bit colored and i couldn't control my bladder, but i managed. i wake up in the morning and i feel down and i am shaking a little. After 3 days i went to see my doctor, my glucose was fine, blood pressure as slightly high, 144/98, he took EKG and it was normal and sent me home. I went to see him again after 1 week and i will feel a bit week, weight loss 100kg, i used to 104 and I'm slow in writing and i worried. what could be wrong with me?
