From what you describe minus the weight issue is how I was for a long time. I fixed my appetite by forcing myself to exercise and at first it was VERY difficult but it didn't take long before every morinig I would get home and would be STARVING to which instead of eating stuff that sent my bg through the roof I would eat .... STEAK and cheese and maybe 1 or two carbs of veg. Even now I mow that steak down. However, I'll  back up a bit. Years prior to this as it's very recent, I would not eat for 3 days and it wouldn't worry me but then eat packets as in plural of biscuits and for a long time I lived on milk, milk drinks and malt for 3 years then moved to full milk coffees about 5 or 6 a day. So I didn't this for a long time as it slowly or not so slowly destroyed my body (as it does). So then I woke up 40 years later with retinopathy, gastroparesis for a life time. Neuropathy etc. But at some point YOU HAVE TO WANT TO LIVE. Fake it till you make it, even if it feels like your WALKING THROUGH DRYING CEMENT, if you get up and move even just a little, but do it every day. You can wait until it's on top of you or start now but absolutely it will work to move and exercise with increasing intensity, your body will SCREAM to eat and it becomes impossible to ignore, I know because days I take off I instantly can go back to not eating but on the mornings I go for walks or do push-ups etc incant ignore the hunger that develops. This is the best advice I can give you, and the type of food will be exactly what the body ordered plus it's practically carb free and contains all the nutrients you will need although you may need some multivitamins or injections depending on your current state. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or want to talk.</p></blockquote><p></p>
