Hello. I'm a girl of 16, if that matters. So far I have not thought about whether I have a problem, but I decided to share and ask you. I have always been very thin, I have not gained any weight for 3 years (44 kg). I do not eat more than twice a day. I rarely visit my grandmother and she, like any grandmother, wants her granddaughter not to stay hungry. The last time I stayed for a day, I ate in the morning, at lunch and dinner, more than usual. When I returned to the city for two days I did not eat anything, I felt full and I felt sick only at the sight of food. In everyday life I rarely feel hungry, and if I feel hungry, I eat much less than I feel like eating, because then I get sick and I just can't take anything else. A few months ago, I ended a long relationship and sadness hit my appetite again. It lifted me from everything and in 2/3 days I lost 3 kilograms unconsciously, as at my 44km it is quite noticeable. I feel like I'm suffering from anorexia, only I don't need to stimulate vomiting and I definitely don't look big in the mirror. I am asking for advice, because I would very much like to gain some weight, I think I will look and feel better. I also have anemia and I would like to be able to add substances that strengthen my body through food. Thanks in advance! to strengthen my body through food.

At the age of 18, they found out with the same complaints that I had developed gastritis - why don't you ask your GP to send you to a gastroenterologist to tell you exactly what is wrong with you and how to eat so that you don't have problems? Separately, if I eat greasy and doughy and fried (as the grandmothers cook) it always becomes inflamed and then I get nauseous.
Girl, start taking multivitamins - it's not normal to have no appetite. If you have anemia, you need to strengthen yourself with iron. Take her vitamin C of 500 mg. , not from the small pills and quickly, quickly you will start eating
I eat about 10-15 products from the thousandth range. These are neither cooked dishes, nor grills and fast foods, nor are they foods for dieters, and light foods that do not make your stomach swell, it is very difficult for me to overdo it. Day 4 slices of Bavarian bread with pate, evening eggs with sausages and peanuts. I've driven with less. When I drink I take yellow cheese, which is my favorite, I rarely use oil, you become all greasy. Don't be fooled by food. I immediately vomited from donuts and only when I smell it I get up. Homemade become the same in taste, and fuller. I did it myself, with 5 megadjuners I spent 3 days, the products were worth 22-25.
The reason is that you do not have normal eating habits. Your body is used to feeding it twice a day and never overeating. Now I will tell you my story, which is very similar to yours, but I am not at all proud of it and if the site was not anonymous, I would keep quiet. At your age, I was a little obsessed with success. I was constantly signing up for new ventures, I didn't stop at one place and I often forgot to eat. In general, I have a fast metabolism, in my family all women are small and weak, so I did not worry that I am at the lower limit of the norm. Yes, but in that period I went below the norm by a few kilograms. It was for a complex of reasons, including a separation that I don't understand why I suffered then, but teenage dramas. In that case, when you fall below the norm, the change is visible, she is not beautiful and you start to feel sick. My cycle started to be delayed, I felt exhausted, I often felt nauseous and I didn't have a gram of appetite. I ate twice a day, once on foot and once for dinner. I will not go into details, but the lining of my stomach was very irritated because of my poor eating habits. It was only logical that I would feel sick and have a stomach ache. I started very carefully in the beginning. In the morning I ate yogurt, had snacks with fruit, had lunch and dinner in moderation, in quantities that ate me. These quantities were not very large, but my stomach was also constricted. I set alarms to remind me to eat. So my body got used to eating at certain hours, when I started to get hungry and the alarms became unnecessary. In the beginning, I focused on light foods that do not irritate the stomach, most liquid. Over time, my appetite increased, but before that I had to reach a critical point where I was just having dinner. In short, I was nauseous because I didn't eat. Not specifically because of the lack of enough food, but because my habits were terrible and this had a bad effect on my health. My stomach suffers as much as it suffers. Then I reduced the stress, learned to take care of myself consciously, and things never went to ugly extremes again. You don't have to have anorexia or bulimia, they didn't characterize me with either, but I still hurt myself enough and now I'm sorry for my past mistakes. You better get your hands on it in time. He eats often, nothing less. You lack energy, the nutritional values of your two meals for the day are not particularly good, so ... tighten up. It is clear to me that you think that there is no option to eat at all if you do not feel like eating. I also think that everyone is exaggerating with the advice to tread when I have no appetite and I feel sick. I never vomited. When I ate, I felt sick and sick. It just took me too long to realize that I didn't understand my body at all and just thought I was interpreting his reactions correctly.
Why not share this with your GP? If you are worried, ask to see a woman. You realize that something is wrong and you are already looking for help (Well done!). You're not a stupid girl. Let me tell you, if you procrastinate now, you could have a lot of problems in the future. People will not make fun of you and will not share with others from the school.
Whatever people here recommend, it's best to see a doctor. Lack of appetite can be due to various reasons, including depression, irregular bowel movements, etc. Someone needs to examine you.
From the author Many thanks to everyone for their time and help! :). I think my psyche is at the center of everything. I was already afraid to eat more, because I was mainly afraid that I would start vomiting and become a habit. For now it has not happened and I gradually believe that my body will entered some mode.
