Anyone experience unexplained weight loss with Tymlos?

I started taking Tymlos in October 2025 and now in January 2026 I find that I have lost 8 lbs. As a 5’11” small boned 66 yo female, I should NOT weigh 117lbs.
I still have not worked my way up to the full 80 dosage. I’m currently at 50. I’ve never had weight issues because I’m a runner. But my doctor insists I continue because as far as he knows, weight loss is not a side effect.
I think he needs to read more about this drug.

@kittygrrrl I experienced some nausea and reduced appetite when I began Tymlos. In about 5 months I lost around 15 pounds—no dieting. It was a bonus—I needed to lose weight. The doctor gave me med for the nausea—which lasted a couple of months. By the end of my Tymlos 2 years—I had regained about half of weight lost. Hope you can get back to your normal weight! Hang in there!
@kittygrrrl I started Tymlos June 2025. I have lost 20 lbs.

I am 66 years old 5'3''and weighed 102 pounds starting tymlos. After about 9 months in I suddenly lost 7 pounds and even though I completed 16 months of regular doses, I continue to lose little by little. My doctor also said that weight loss is not a side effect of tymlos.
He also didn't know that it can cause high blood pressure that doesn't go away after treatment.
I'm now on medication for that. I also started to have high cholesterol for the first time in my life. I don't know what to do at this point. It's scaring me.
