Well it really depends on how you feel. If you are just not hungry, and just dont feel like food, then it could be something different and you should go to a doctor. If you are just 'convincing' yourself you aren't hungry, or if you feel you have a problem with the way you look, or if you just really really want to lose weight, then it is possible you have an eating disorder.
But i can tell you are concerned or you wouldnt have posted and it wouldnt hurt to go to the doctor, because if your body just isn't wanting food, that can be bad as well.

well your body follows the pattern you give it... try making yourself eat three smaller meals a day... set times to eat and eat a little bit at those times even when you are not hungry, just for a while. Soon your body will get used to eating at those times and you will begin to feel hungry again. Spacing out your meals will also help you lose weight because your metabolism will stay revved up. Many small meals throughout the day is much better for you than one big meal anyways. goodluck

Aw okay sorry to hear that. Okay well then it sounds like you do have a problem then because you want to lose weight. Is there someone like maybe a school counsellor you could go and see.
Or right now, because its not that serious YET, you could maybe try and eat because not eating is hell and it just makes your life suck...tbh. And you know that by exercising you can lose weight but you can eat too, because if you leave it too long you wont be able to stop then you could get really really sick.

Hey Jordan,

If going to a doctor isn't an option, it's still important to talk to someone. You don't want to end up in the hospital because of this, which very well could happen. A parent, a teacher, a school nurse, guidance counselor, or any other adult is someone that's good to talk to. Since we aren't doctors here, we can advise you as best we can but we can't be sure what's causing you to feel sick, you know? So it's best to talk to an adult who can help you in person.

In the meantime, try as best you can to eat normally and take GOOD care of yourself.
