it doesnt really matter what you want perse', it's what you need. you need to eat. i know you cant taste or smell and that takes all the enjoyment out of eating, but you really gotta eat, it'll keep you alive, it's the way it works, ya know?

First off, please don't list numbers like your weight. It could be triggering to other members.

Secondly, I think there is a difference between "I'm not hungry" and "I don't want to eat because I'm afraid I'll get fat." The former denotes "anorexia (not having appetite)" and the latter denotes "eating disorder."

Because you had brain trauma, it could have triggered an eating disorder. My advice is to look into finding a therapist and dietitian in order to get your eating habits on track. From personal experience, it can and gladly will kill you.

If your worried about your weight you eat frequent small meals during the day but not eatting is not the answer

The traumatic injury might have triggered the ED as a way of gaining some control..... speak to someone if you can, as te others say. You survivied a brain injury, don't let ED kill you....

We all have to eat in order to live. I had a friend who suffered from loss of taste and smell after a tumour, she is an avid cook but doesn;t enjoy her cooking anymore, that hasn't stopped her however, she makes food to the exact recipes and knows they will taste good. Dont let the trauma you have been through stay with you with this. Put food in its proper place and speedy recovery xxxxxx

Have you talked to your dr about this? Might be a good place to start and get some advise.

I think you have an eating disorder, just because of the way you think and act on it. You starve yourself out of fear of getting fat. Sounds like anorexia to me.
When I was IP there was a young man who had brain surgery to help with his seizures. During that surgery they damaged a little part in his brain that caused him to be anorexic. You need to talk to a doctor and a therapist. Good luck
