Fast Weight Loss: I think anyone with unexplained fast weight loss should have an evaluation by their primary care physician. If you have been trying to loose weight but it is faster than expected then I am not as worried. Mostly, you will be fine but fast weight loss can be a sign of a serious disorder. Meet with you pcp and decide how best to proceed. Best wishes.
