I find it hard to eat. During the day it is just a banana and mabe a couple of cookies. Then when My hubby comes home I can eat some dinner. Chicken potatoes and veges. that seems to be all my stomach can handle..

I have no real appetite at the moment, just trying to stop myself eating the easiest things, as they aren't the best for me. Normally I love to cook, but finding it hard to muster the interest at the moment.

I find that some of my medication gives me tummy problems.

iTS THE COOKING im allergic to. When poorly I can not be bothered so I snack.

Try to have lots of healthy instant snacks about so you can nibble.

Well, every winter up until this one I could not eat either and would lose weight every winter, I had stomach pains, headaches, body aches, I had nausea and nooo appetite. I have heard that it is due to a lack of Vit D. so I do take 2000 iu every day now.
But this year I have been on the Pill and it has increased my appetite and decreased my anxiety, also I have been using my new light box every day. Unfortunately I have gained weight this winter. :o( but, I can deal with that over the other symptoms.
We have 2 1/2 feet of snow right now and it is still coming down. I am a bit peeved

I am on meds but I still don't feel like eating much. I only take about 1400iu every day. Cooking is also a problem I just don't feel like it. Thats why hubby helps out alot.
