Explain?: We'd like to answer your question, but probably most of us are wondering how you know this. If you are losing weight despite eating really heavily, and you've done the math, and you're not over-exercising, then you may have malabsorption; any physician today can begin the workup for this and for celiac sprue. A good primary care physician can answer this. Good luck.
