Can dxm really cause weight loss, 10 lbs in 6 months

[Joewenston]

Ima make it short as ican, i startes dxm back in august and from july to now ive lost 10 lbs!
Im freakin out cause i never exercise or anything so my parents are thinkjng somethings not up..
Im almost 100% sure its the dex cuz the timing is so close for it to be any other reason.
I was a using from 2-3 times a week to once every other week.
Is this normal, especially since i dont exercise i really dont know what to do..
When i go to the doc, my mom goes in but im 18 so i cant tell him the truth.
So does anyone knoe if DXM is the most likely cause and do the drug test for stuff when looking at weight issues?
Im about to eat ALOT..

Your overall weight loss was certainly from a caloric deficit, but as somebody who counts that stuff I would vouch for DXM making me subconsciously not hungry for a day or two after ingestion.

Exercise consumes energy from your body, being at the tipping point of a changed caloric deficit diet for most people... but I would go as far as to say that weight loss should be expected from using DXM that often without conscious effort. (Said weight loss will bounce back with time and maybe some moderation, but long term mental health is what most people are going to highlight as being the risk of that frequent of DXM use.)

I can't say that you should worry about your weight loss difference that much compared to setting further consumption and health goals to compensate the loss.
