    As of late you say. Has anything happened stress wise lately? Sometimes when your feeling low an appetite is that last thing on your mind

    I've experienced this too. I don't think it's normal, but it happens. Depression or nausea for me.

    Lame. I work out several time a week for an hour or two, and I can eat anything I want without gaining weight...

    I had the same thing. Still do at times. I think I drink too much before meals and leads to not being hungry or anything. Ever since I've lifted weights 4 times a week, I haven't ate as much

  • Two of my friends are in hospital at the moment with anorexia (both 14) and it sucks. Eating disorders are often about self harm or perfectionism and can affect something in the brain and it becomes a fixation. I don't think this is the same as your case as your problem is not resisting the food but rather not even physically or mentally wanting the food. I'm sure there is some condition. Some would consider you lucky, but it actually sucks when you consider how much you actually have to eat to survive. You will be fine. Just keep eating. It is the fuel in which we must consume to survive.

    For the both of you, i've had an ED since I was 11, and i'm 21 and just had 5 weeks of treatment.

    Seek help. It was scary. But believe me, it got so bad they gave me two weeks to live and i almost lost my personality, and friends... and brain..
    please, both of you, do yourselves a favor and seek HAPPINESS.
