Abnormal?

Question

I’m 16 almost 17 and my weight is kind of all over the place. It can go anywhere from 120lb to 145lb (I’m 5’4” if that helps/matters). It doesn’t seem to matter when I’m exercising or not. I’m not losing muscle mass, but sometimes I won’t work out for a while and my weight will drop to near 120lb and other times it just spikes up for no rhyme or reason up to 145lb (I’ve lost 7lb in a day before for no reason). Is it just my metabolism or should I be concerned?

Answer

That can’t be good for your skin. Does your diet change ?

Answer

Muscle weighs more than fat

Answer

I've been like this for 15 years. No one could ever explain it. Especially when on my period.

Answer

I'm about the same height, that seems to be a large fluctuation. Although it may depend on what you eat. If you eat something with a lot of sodium you would most certainly gain weight from that, but gaining or losing 7 pounds in one day seems excessive. Is it during certain times of the month? That could have a lot to play into it. Hormones 😁

Answer

I would talk to a doctor about this. That doesn't seem normal. Fluctuating a few lbs a day is normal but not 7, and definitely not 20 so fast. Could be something off balance
