My clothes don't fit!

[fluffymark]

I've been going through some of my older clothes from about 3 to 5 years ago and seeing if I still like them, while cringing at some of my fashion blunders and bad taste. It appears that very few of them still fit me - they keep falling off. I'd not been aware I'd lost that much weight since moving to London, and even back then I was severely underweight. Now I'm a mere 53 kilos, and despite my best efforts, still losing weight. Eeeeep?

Hmm. Do you often have abdominal pain?

How long have I been telling you you should go and get your skinnyness investigated?

And you bastard, you've given what weight you've lost to me ;-)

What best efforts? You hardly every manage lunch, nibble at teatime and despite what you may think a bowl of Smash does NOT count as a meal. Eat properly and you may weigh more (and if you weighed a decent amount you wouldn't be able to keep stealing my clothes, which could only be a good thing).
And yes you should hassle a doctor about it as you can't afford to lose any more weight, if necessary we will get you some of those fattening milkshakes they give to people recorvering from surgery (kind of anti-slimfast).

*blink* uh, how tall are you?

As I said, shall I just send my access weight to you? Hm. You need a Russian babushka to take care of you. Can't you get them via mail-order or something? Hire-a-babushka?

But jokes aside, you know I have been concerned for ages about how little you eat, although you always seem to eat well around me. Catt is right, 3, or even 4 balanced, WHOLE meals a day, not this smash malarky. I should know, I spent many years of my youth seeing a damned dietician (although for the opposite reasons). This doesn't mean you have to force feed yourself, but even little things, like corn, bread, pasta and cheese can actually add a good deal of bulk to a meal.

If you can't bear to eat so much at once, then snack. You said you like toast, well have it more often. A slice here, a slice there, munch munch. Popcorn is also good in that respect.

Do try. Your health will suffer, especially as winter is comming up. Also, lack of vitamins and, even more so, fat from your diet can adversely effect your moods. If you've found yourself feeling lower than usual of late, your sparce diet may be part of the cause. That's one of the reasons why we're naturally inclined towards liking fatty foods: they make us feel happier.
