This is a question i can't seem to get a straight answer for: i haven't exercised for a week but i am still somehow losing weight, even though i am consuming more calories than burned. im losing several ounces daily. what can i attribute it to?

Unexplained and sustained weight loss not due to Caloric intake deficit, should be evaluated by the PCP for potential explanation. This will include Comprehensive Physical Examination, Laboratory Investigations and appropriate Imaging studies. A visit to the Gynecologist may also be indicated. A chat with a trained Dietician might also help.
