cassieann_69The Dictionary definition :noun- "a lack or loss of appetite for food (as a medical condition)
- an emotional disorder characterized by an obsessive desire to lose weight by refusing to eat"
This describes me to a T.
I very very rarely have an appetite, I hate the feeling of food in my mouth. Its not easy for me to eat at all.
And I obsess over a desire to lost weight pretty much CONSTANTLY. And refuse to eat a lot of the time.
My calorie intake is between 250-600 a day. I am vitamin deficient, take B12 shots and have prescription level strength for other vitamins.There is no doubt I am experiencing malnutrition. Which just blows my mind considering I am NOWHERE NEAR UNDER WEIGHT! Which is another thing I don't understand...how is it that I consume such a small amount of calories everyday yet I don't lose an single pound. And even tho I don't normally mention my weight I will for the case of argument ...I am 5ft 7in tall and weight 145.
The only reason I can think of that I am stuck where I am is a lack of exercise.
I have a gym membership but due to a heart condition I really cannot do any cardio exercise.
But I can walk on the treadmill...which I guess I should be doing.
And I know its no excuse but I just get so depressed I find it hard to do anything. Not to mention I am not eating enough to have much energy to do much of anything.
Well I think I am done venting now. Considering its 2:50am I guess I should try to get some sleep.
