I'm not hungry?

I want to eat something, but when I have something to bite, it doesn't fill me up with joy. Makes me feel sick, I can't explain how I feel towards food as it has no affect on me anymore. I'm not dangerously thin, I full of enery, alittle bit tried and most of all food lacks taste. It's something I've always been doing since back in year 8 to year 9. I've been putting food on and off. Still one meal is enough for me every day or so. I don't know why I worry though never eat anything at school. Now I want something to eat but I just can't make myself get up to have it. I like to drink not a lot but still I do mostly milk than water because its seems so plain. FOOD is the problem why need eat, when I have so much energy inside of me all ready. By the way I'm not upset over it just think its silly to waste money on something you eat then its gone. Any how I will never know why I don't eat as much as I'm suppose to. Right now today I've only had a bit of bread and a chocolate bar and drank some milk. Thats why I might feel sleepy. I alos have pe tomorrow can't wait to let my anger fly away with me in class. I don't faint and I will never. The thing is I seem to get worse and even more worse when I grow up I tend to drop more food as if it doesn't matter to me. Also I'm kind of don't eat meat its not because of animals dying though kind of sad but thats life. I sometimes eat chicken on special occasions. I'm mean first therpy session my therpist didn't seem to worry that much about me eating less. Right now I want something to eat yet no one has told me to have something to eat. Should I stay here thinking about food or try to have something to eat even though, I feel sick when eating. I don't think I'm fat sometimes worry if I not the right shape but that doesn't matter. Thanks for reading my post! Finally done...

Food-> <-Me

It is huge contribution to your self-esteem for considering yourself to be a physically healthy person. Not just one who doesn't get sick, but after I eat a plate of steamed vegetables, I FEEL healthier and happier. Bread and chocolate only give me feelings of guilt about eating. I love the idea of vitamins coursing through my veins.

Ok, I'm going to try and grab a bite too eat now before its another day with out eating not enough. Maybe a apple!

Yeah, it's just bad for your metabolism and just plain kind of dumb to go without eating. It's like banging on your foot with a hammer. If you want to take care of yourself, then start by eating well. Nobody can do it for you -- you've got to take the responsibility.

Bon apetit with the apple

Is it a emotional way of coping with my deepest feelings inside of me? I find it hard to eat when I'm around my friends house or out shopping with my mum or going to the kitchen to make something. Food is poking me right now and I just can't get up and eat something. Plus my menory sucks I keep thinking I've already had something to eat today but no! I'm ok....

I don't think you would have written this post if you weren't concerned....food is nourishment....it's a good thing....Try to eat on a regular schedule, even if you're not interested...Remember, you only have one body and you're still growing....give yourself what you need...grace

Hi Miss A,

I have to admit that your post sounded a bit like a depression post to me. I know the feeling - why do it if I don't like it? I think we lose our appetites when we're down and there's no way you can enjoy a meal if you're not hungry, especially in front of other people - that's torture!

I would say, find something that you like to eat and make it your own, eat when you feel like it, try not to make eating into an issue, but what do I know? Some days I can eat a steak meal and other days it's back to the weetabix.

When I lived alone in my flat I lived for a year on nothing but plain spaghetti, Ryvita biscuits and beer. Do you know what? They were good times. I still have a soft spot for a bit of plain spaghetti (cooked al dente) with a knob of butter.

But put me around the dinner table with a bunch of people and I'm done for. Who knows what causes all this c***, but it sure does happen.

Cheers, M

PS - another funny thing about living in my flat. I once got home from work on Friday night and went straight to bed. I woke up on Saturday teatime just to go to the loo, went straight back to bed and woke up again on Monday morning!
I had slept through the entire weekend without eating or drinking, and found myself back in work. Weird thing, I felt fine.
