I Agree with Genevieve. I am over 50 (you can't get much more "middle age" than that), & am still struggling with not wanting to eat. Having to deal with people trying to get me to eat, & trying to hide it by just eating a little so it won't have any effect on the weight because I can just skip eating the next day. The feeling of being slightly thick is always there no matter what my weight says.

Not only teens have this problem & just because it went away once doesn't mean that it doesn't haunt you the rest of your life.

Hope this will help you understand a little & not be influenced by the widely publisized information given by the media. It is something that exists across age boundaries & even sexes.
