My anxiety and meds cause loss of appetite. I use weight gain shakes to keep me full and for nutrition. Also, drink lots of water & small snacks if possible.

All I remember eating today was a piece of cheddar cheese. I’m either having a salad or panini for supper with a drink. I can’t stand the taste of water, but everyone enforces me to drink it.

I isolate myself. I wake up, think about food, and decide I’ll wait until later. Later never comes! Or it does, but not until the evening.

I tried a turkey panini with all these veggies and stuff on it tonight. It wasn’t very apetizing.

I’ll have a couple of eggs for breakfast tomorrow. I’m going to take out a can of soup and crackers for lunch tomorrow. I have canned corn that I could for supper and maybe hubby will buy us a salad.

Another chronically under-weight self-starver here. When I saw the scene in the Wizard of Oz where the Wicked Witch of the West disappears, crying, "I'm melting!!!!" I thought, "Finally, somebody who understands how involuntary weight loss feels!" Hey. . . It's hard not to feel alone in today's heavy weight world.

Complex foods, like a turkey panini with all the veggies or a 3 course meal tears my stomach up when my appetite is flaky. Ditto for eating allot in a single sitting. I do better "eating like a bird," nibbling continually on simple foods like dry cereal, crackers, plain, raw veggies, fruit, nuts, cheese, meat slices, etc. I make a plate of simple foods that I keep near to wherever I'm working to keep myself reminded to keep eating like a bird. Nibble, nibble, all day long. High quality juices and smoothies help to.

I eat worse than a bird. I’ll have to make a bird feeder for myself for now on!

Hubby buys blueberries and I just forget about them.

Good info for me because I have lost 30 pounds now however it was a good thing because I needed to lose weight but I don't want to keep losing. I feel that I am at a healthy weight now and don't want to look sick. I have decided to go back to drinking ensures again to help me continue with having the nutrition needed going into my body.

My dietician told me even a glass of chocolate milk for breakfast is better than nothing. I hate white milk, but I can handle chocolate milk.

I would give anything to be able to eat and swallow. When I gained weight and finally was 100 lbs I was so happy but the food was not easy so come by.

I understand eating like a bird. I can get a tiny burger and it will last me for 3 days.

Wishing you all the best for eating.

Keep your head up hunting and don't give up I want to give up but I just can't do it for my daughter I have to stay strong but my anxiety overpowers me a lot and it's I don't know what to do either I wish I had the problem of the eating I eat all junk food too and I need to lose weight like crazy but I just eat whatever I can find

I am sorry you are struggling right now! I'm wondering is this pattern something new or has it always been part of your life? What are the reasons for you not to want to eat? I guess that's my biggest concern. I know it's often easier to fill up on unhealthy food as they are normally quick and easy. Eating healthy does take more commitment and a little more work at times. What I have found that helps me stay on track with healthy eating is planning ahead. I make menu plans and only buy what is needed instead of stocking up on junk. I prep my food ahead of time. Make salads for the week and store in containers in your fridge etc. Have healthy snacks available. For me, it's really been mind over matter. I have to choose to want to be healthy and my actions need to follow suit. I know how horrible I feel physically, mentally, and emotionally when I choose not to eat healthy and that's scarier to me then using a little more time in my day to plan and prep! It's not always easy, but it's definitely worth it! Best of luck to you!

My eating has starting getting better. I just figure when I wake I can eat later and what’s always waiting but never comes? LATER! I had bacon and eggs for breakfast today. I love both. I had prime rib roast for Easter supper tonight and it was really good. Last night I had a donair pizza. That has tomato, meat, onion on it and I dip it in delicious sauce. I never knew I liked either supper until I tried them. I’m very relieved I took a chance on both :)

i have been having the same issue due to my meds and anxiety. its awful not being able to enjoy food or have no desire to eat. try ensure or boost or look up healthy foods with high calories? smoothies and milkshakes are good too. if u really are having issues with your stomach or appetite. if you start feeling hungry, take it as a good sign and eat!!! :D
