Thanks! It's the best advice yet I have actually talked to her and she told me to go on basically the atkins diet log EVERYTHING I eat also that I have a thyroid issue and a small metabolic disorder. After my father died I just stopped caring about anything and food was one of those things.
The best advice yet is the person who told you to ignore everyone else and that it's okay for you to think you can gain 45 pounds drinking 2 glasses of milk a day?
Okay then.0 -

You said none of us can tell her anything for sure. But we can. It's impossible to put on weight if you aren't eating.0 -
OP, try this. Don't go on the Atkins diet. It won't help you lose weight until you figure out exactly how many calories you're consuming. Eat your normal diet for a week and log everything. Every single thing. Use a food scale for everything but liquids, and carefully use measuring cups for those. Everything. In grams. Salad dressings, ketchup, cream, mayo, EVERYTHING. At the end of your week, see how many calories you've been consuming. If you really aren't eating at a surplus, you need to see your doctor again, but I'm willing to bet it will be eye opening for you.0

You said none of us can tell her anything for sure. But we can. It's impossible to put on weight if you aren't eating.
So where did I say it was fine for her to think she can gain 45 lbs on a diet of basically nothing?
I even said "obviously most of the information you've been offered in this thread is correct on a general basis". Not you or anyone else here is her doctor, so like I said, none of us know for sure what the real issue with the OP is. It might be that shes eating more than she thinks, it might be a genuine medical condition, it might be any number of things. But going on to a public forum and asking for medical advice from a bunch of internet strangers is not going to solve her problem.0 -

She didn't ask for medical advice; she asked why she wasn't losing weight even though she doesn't eat. People said this is impossible, and they are correct.0 -

Not surprising that someone says the best advice is pretty much the person not telling the OP that they are doing something wrong. So OP, I guess since that's the advice you were looking for I guess this thread is done?
Thats not what I said either, you're being ridiculous. Its quite obvious that something is wrong with the OP, whether its her own doing or whether she's being completely honest and its something medical. But I'm sorry that I'm not going to sit here and diagnose a person I've never met over the internet.0 -

No one diagnosed her. It was simply stated that it is impossible for her to gain weight while not eating.0 -

That genuine medical condition does not exist.
So maybe its mental? Maybe she needs therapy? Who knows aside from her doctor/therapist?0 -
ok I agree she needs to weigh everything and log it but,Im going to put this out there. my daughter was the same way,never hungry and didnt eat much food. most days it was under 1200 calories. she kept gaining weight even though she was barely eating, BUT, come to find out she has hyperthyroidism and insulin resistance(but not diabetic yet). she has only lost 14 lbs since april 2nd. she is on low carb and 1200 calories and some days she struggles to eat that much food. so yes it is possible to gain weight when you have health issues and arent eating enough food.my daughter sees an endocrinologist because of all of it. I know a lot of you said that its not possible but it is. you can also have insulin resistance and not know it. she has had it for years and all her blood work would come back normal until recently.0

Wow I asked for advice on why I'm never hungry! I didn't asked to be bashed or made go feel like crap! I'm depressed enough as it is I don't need people I don't know calling me a liar or anything else! I have been to the doctor I DO have medical conditions! I am hoping to see a specialist because the thought of food makes me want to puke! I'm forcing myself to eat breakfast everyday which is a HUGE start for me especially this past year. When I used to log on here at the end of the day it would always tell me I'm not eating enough calories and in two weeks I would weigh the same. So obviously me not eating enough is a problem. And I opened up my journal if there is a way to view it then view it!-1 -
No one diagnosed her. It was simply stated that it is impossible for her to gain weight while not eating.
And you would be 110% correct
I got fat because I ate too much even though if you asked me I probably would have said I didn't eat that much. It wasn't just about the amount though it was the food that I was eating. Sure I can say all I ate was some guacamole and chips but is that an entire bowl of guac and a bag of chips? I would say I was probably pounding the entire bag but hey, I practically ate nothing all day 
If you said to me I was probably gaining weight because I ate too much that wouldn't be a diagnosis, that would be a simple fact LOL 0 -
I'm not going to say she has a mental problem. She does seem to either having logging issues or is in denial.crashintome05416 wrote: »THonestly none of us here can tell you anything for sure because no matter how adamantly people here insist they're always right, they're not your doctor. obviously most of the information you've been offered in this thread is correct on a general basis but nobody can say for sure what is wrong in your specific case. you need to speak to a medical professional, or a therapist, or someone who can actually give you accurate and valuable advice.

And not once did I ever deny that that was a possibility. My point was that none of us are able to accurately tell her whats going wrong because we don't know her, how truthful any of her posts are, the details of her diet, her medical history, etc etc. So if she's looking for a quick solution to her problem, she's not going to find it here. The most she can get here is general advice and possible solutions, but whether or not they apply to her is not something you or I could say for sure.0 -

Are you saying I'm the one who's calling you a liar? Because I feel like I'm sticking up for you if anything... I'm sorry if you feel bashed, I feel bad if I made you feel that way.. Its good that you're seeing a specialist though, I hope you can get some real answers and figure out how to continue on your weight loss and health journey.0 -
