I don't eat much anymore - January 31st 2012, 03:24 AM

I am not sure if this counts as an eating disorder or if this post belongs in this forum but it can be moved if need be. I have always been a small person but never skinny but I have also never really minded too much about my size. I am not exactly sure but probably about a few months ago I just sort of lost my appetite and haven't been eating nearly as much as I usually do. Recently a few people have been commenting on how skinny I have been getting and when I went to weigh myself today out of curiosity I found that I had lost a lot of weight since last time I checked. I am pretty sure I am not underweight but I don't wan't to become like that. I have been trying to eat a bit more often but I just don't feel like it and certain foods I used to like just make me feel sick looking at them. I don't know for sure if there is really anything wrong with me but it is just odd and I am wondering if it is possible I have somehow developed an eating disorder without knowing? Is that possible?

It might be something worth checking with a doctor on. They can definately tell you more then we can but yes it sounds like it could be in my opinion.

Hmmm. I sometimes don't eat much or even at all when i'm stressed about something. Looking at food can make me sick and even eating a little can make me feel like I want to vomit. But thats only when im anxious or stressed. Have you been stressed lately?

If you're not doing it on purpose (as in, for losing weight, etc), then it's most likely not a pshychological but a physiological issue. Worth getting checked out at the doctor's or a professional nutritionist's though.

Thanks for the reply's guys . I was really stressed a while back and maybe that's all it is since it started back then. Just gotta get back on track I guess.
