Hmmmmm, I'd give it another week or so and see if it levels out - if not I would do to the doc personally, I'm sure it's nothing sinister but I am personally a hypochondriac!

Thats alot of weight to lose in a couple of weeks if you've not been dieting. Have you had your thyroid levels checked, an over active thyroid gland (hyperthyrodism) can contribute to weight loss. Have you been sweating more lately, feeling abit shaky? Maybe an increased appetite. These are some of the signs linked to an overactive thryroid
