She kept gaining weight until July 1st, 2021, when we started trying this diet, so cutting out oils and nut butters. Within 3 months she went from 150 pounds to 125. She was thrilled, as was I! She also exercises vigorously 6 days a week.
Unfortunately, she hasn't had her period since last August. We went to her naturopath today for a different issue and the doctor said she had lost another 10 pounds and now the doctor's worried because she hasn't had her period in 173 days. And she mentioned words like 'famine' and needing to get bloodwork done. I am now a bit panicked and my daughter doesn't want to gain weight again. So many of her friends have EDs, I don't want to go down that route! Help!
