Pegasus, I'm so sorry you're feeling so down. I'm new here, and you were kind enough to post a welcome note for me. Thank you very much for that! You're a kind, caring person. Please take a moment to care for yourself. I, too, am having problems motivating myself to eat, but I always manage to have something when I know I'm really hungry. Maybe try to start with something easy and readily available, yet still healthy. A bananna or apple? Some yougurt or a glass of milk? A bowl of instant oatmeal? Like lynnP. said above, if you were your kid, you'd be sure to eat something. Be easy with yourself. Although I'm new here I get a strong impression that you're well liked by everyone here, not just a newbie that happend by (me).
