What Causes Excessive Weight Loss?

My husband has always been very slim and in the winter he weighs about 184. But when spring and summer comes, he becomes very active... renovating a farmhouse and barn (lots of carpentry), mowing and trimming the large lawn, and he loses each year about 10 pounds. but today he is at 170. He takes no meds.
