I've lost 14 kilogrammes in two weeks. Is this normal?

General

I’ve drastically modified my eating habits in the last month or two - I no longer consume meat or dairy, and I’ve nearly completely eliminated manufactured sugar, except for the occasional canned or ready-made vegan coleslaw.

I also had a tooth extracted two days ago, so I’ve been on a liquid diet since yesterday (soya/coconut yoghurts, soups, etc.), though I’m still eating three meals each day.

I was wondering if this was normal/healthy because I know it is not ideal to lose a large amount of weight rapidly. I’m just not sure if that amount/time qualifies huge.

Thank you in advance.

SW weighed 81kg on October 14, 24, and is currently 67kg.

This is not normal, even if you have changed your diet or lost weight. You need to contact a doctor.

No, it is not normal. I remember dropping over 7 kg early in my weight reduction journey, but I quickly realised that most of it was water weight, not actual fat. To be honest, what you describe sounds disturbing. You should probably speak with your doctor.

This doesn’t sound healthy. Please consult a doctor.

No, losing 14 kilogrammes in two weeks is not healthy; if you continue to lose weight at this rate, you should seek medical counsel.

No, this is absolutely not typical. Especially given your weight. I believe you should consult a doctor; anything may be wrong.

That is an incredible amount of weight to drop in two weeks, but you have provided reasons for it.

I’d make sure you’re not still dropping weight this quickly; if you are, visit a doctor right away. Examine your food consumption to ensure you are eating a balanced and nutritious diet.

It wouldn’t hurt to get a checkup just in case, for piece of mind and everything.
