I do have acid reflux but take a medication for that. Haven't had a real problem with that except occasional icky burps. And my diet is bland because of my other medical conditions.

I know my calorie count is low. I drink a Hi protien drink by Bolthouse called Vanila Chai made from soy...it has, in one bottle (considered 4 servings but on a bad eating day, I'll drink the whole bottle) 500 cals, 120 grs protein and 100 carbs. Sometimes that is all I can get down, although I sit at the dinner table and try to nibble so my 12 year old and 17 year old girls will not get into me with their hang ups about weight. My worst fear is the two of them developing problems so I am desperately trying to model eating. (they know I can't eat sometimes, but my older girl, who is built like me but won't exercise...sees that i don't eat and wants to do what I am doing)

I've been on Narcotics for 5 years...That hasn't changed much. Maybe my intestines are withering away to nothing (ha, ha, ha) I'm not using them enough..I think with Thanksgiving, my body didn't know how to handle that food and that has opened my eyes to a problem because I only ate tiny bites.

the worst part is trying to convince my doctors I am experiencing a problem. If I continue not being able to eat, what will happen when I've lost a bunch more weight?

Thank you...I'll check back with you all if I'm stuck.
