How can you tell someone is losing weight by looking at their veins?

Losing Weight
Elizabeth W asked:


I had my blood drawn for tests and the phlebotomist who had never seen me before looked at my arm and veins and asked if I was losing weight. I was but how did she know that, she mumbled something about one of my veins. Are there any phlebotomists out there that would know the answer to this question?
