Like An Eating Disorder, But I Dont Wanna Lose Weight. Posted: 06-19-06 00:07am
I have no idea whats going on with me
let me say something first. I dont wanna
lose weight. Im fine with the way I look!
Im not depressed either
but, honestly, (i cant even how long this
has been going on. Years or months, I
dont know. Never paid attention) some
days, like maybe 5 times per month, my
appetite will dramatically change. Like,
I mean, most days I eat normal. I have a
normal appetite. But some days, I can
never feel full. And some days I could go
through the whole day without eating. Im
just not hungry. Im not trying to not
eat. It just happens. And its odd!
Also, one time, when I was a child like 9
I dont know, I lost my appetite for a
whole month or more. I was so young, and
I just stopped eating. I lost so much
weight and my mother had to force me to
eat everyday. I just didnt see anything
appetizing about anything. I cant
remember if it was depresion or something.
I dont remember.
Help me! Isnt this odd????????

This is quite an interesting case. It
could be anxiety or maybe just a condition
your body has developed..My aunt has this
thing when at times her matobolism just
speeds up so she feels like she has to eat
heaps! Like lots and lots! And then say
a month later she has to force herself to
eat because she feels full just from a
drink of orange juice? Maybe you could
have the same thing as her. I would
deffinantly see a doctor about this

Yeah the same thing happens to me, but I
have (had?) bulimia. My therapist says
its the whole binge & purge thing,
though...
Could be stress...Talk to a doctor,
though.

Hi there! Go into like a gnc store or a
health food store and talk to one of the
employees there, they have like a weight
on instant shake mix and you can add like
ice cream fruit or something like that or
you can drink it plain, I used to have the
same problem. It is also good to get a
check up from your Dr.
Good luck to you!

I had this too I think its caused by too
much acid in ur stomach unfortunately for
me it kinda made me lose weight like the
way I looked more then gain it when my
appetite came back which led to an eating
disorder but originally it was just an
appetite thing for me...You may be able to
take something for it

I had an eating disorder for years but the
thing was, I didn't want to lose weight
either. I had people coming up and
telling me I was too skinny and I ignored
them because I thought I looked normal. I
thought I was the same as everyone else.
Ive thought over the years and I think its
just a form of being in control of
yourself, managing what you're eating. I
was a very fussy eater when I was younger.
Maybe that's what triggered it because I
remember as a child, throwing my food
away. Im just glad ive got over it and
have put on loads of weight. If anyone
wants to talk to me about their
experiences or people who need help just
pm me anytime or email me on roseja
ckson03@msn.Com. I hope this helps
anyway
