I have said I barely ate, went so long without eating, ate, went so long without eating again, have never had more than two things (and most days it’s been zero or one thing) to eat in a day in over two weeks (unless you want to count liquids with calories), and now just refuse to put anything other than crackers and water/gatorade/pedialyte in my stomach.

Maybe like you said they need to see it written down. Maybe they’re thinking positively… “you’re eating! Great! Three crackers yesterday? Three things? You’re supposed to have three meals, that’s fabulous! I consider you recovered and officially graduate you from care and you are now Goddess of health and nutrition.”

At least my pdoc saw how much weight I lost/how quickly and told me it could become a problem… (she said I’d stay out of medical crisis until my BMI drops to 18 but you know at least there was an attempt at concern).
