I am 18yrs old, weigh 104lbs, and am 5 3 . Recently i noticed that i was losing weight. At first i thought it was caused by me stopping the depo shot but when i lost more than what i had originally weighed going on the shot which was 119lbs i became a little worried. Firstly because i went from 135lbs to 120lbs in a month. By three months i had gotten down to 110. I have been off the shot for 7 months now and I am still losing weight. I even tried adding more calories to my diet. Nothing seems to stop the weight loss. It is raising serious concern from my family that I have lost so much weight. I have also lost all appetite. I really never get hungry until around 5pm or so. Other than when i make myself consume a small meal, I don t crave food like i used to ( and I used to have a very large appetite even before the shot) Please help!
