Go see your doctor: Undesired, unintended weight loss is not good. Go see your doctor for a complete evaluation. I don't want to scare you but we worry about infection (think parasites, tuberculosis, hiv, etc), cancer & overactive thyroid in those who are eating enough, not vomiting their food, and not exercising excessively.
