Although I have worked with doctors and nutrition and am elderly myself, you need to have your doctor schedule a visit with a nutritionist that specializes in elder care. Not eating is a big problem with the elderly and lack of nutrients leads to illness an even death in some cases.
I am a restrictive eater which means I restrict myself as to what I eat. I use to go a week without eating and then I would eat something small one day. I have dealt with bulimia but never binging. The healthiest thing is to see a nutristionist so they can give you a meal plan to follow. It'll teach you how to eat consistent meals. Eating under 1000 calories a day is very unhealthy and that will not make you lose weight. Also, diets will not help.
There are many good ones including weight watchers. Meeting with a nutritionist to devise a weight loss plan is also quite helpful overall. Increasing physical activity is a good ideal.
Overall, most people WILL lose weight if they restrict their food enough, so if he is not losing weight then he needs to eat even less. But this does not mean the weight will stay off or even continue to drop. He may need some medication help as well.
I agree--see a dietician/nutritionist who can help you develop a good plan. As someone who has struggled with weight most of my life, I really think the key is to exercise (as well as eat healthy, of course). About 10 years ago I just decided enough was enough-I was sick of being overweight. I taught myself how to cook differently, stopped eating out frequently, limited alcohol, got real with myself that there are certain foods I just can't have in my house anymore, and joined a gym.
Occasionally he will drink it but knows the difference between that and plain milk in the sippy. Appointment on Monday with feeding therapist and nutritionist. They also plan to bring in a behaviorist. Had a little break through this weekend. He took the tiniest bites of crackers and finally got him to eat some yogurt and pudding. We agree he needs to learn how to eat.
Im going to go to a nutritionist.
If at all possible, see a nutritionist and get yourself a balanced meal plan. I found that the ONLY way I could balance my eating habits when I was first recovering was to discuss my goals with a nutritionist, develop a VERY PRESCRIBED REGIMINE and I stuck to it 100% to get myself healthy. From there, we were able to "loosen things up" a bit.
I trying my best to eat 10 calories sugar free jello but sometime I eat anything ( I like a pregnant girl, just eat anything). Does anybody have advice on good eating tips or good pills that help me sleep?
Idk how helpful you'll find it but I'd talk to a nutritionist and have them help build a healthy meal plan.
The problem with this is that diet is a very individual thing. Many people in the weight loss biz are obsessed with calories, but that's not really the key to diet, although it is important. The key is how well you digest what you're eating and how quickly it metabolizes into sugar. Low carb low fat diets are mostly a fad that can work short term but is unhealthy long-term.
Maybe just ask to see a nutritionist and between that and your trainer set up a good meal plan and workout plan that is safe for you and go with that from here on out.
But, during my annual cholesterol checks since then it has crept back up (first to 200, then 208, then 222 last November.) I have a lot of trouble sticking to a really good eating plan for more than a few weeks at a time--regardless of how hard I try. But, I do get a fairly decent amount of exercise several times a week--both cardio and light resistance training.
For gaining weight you should start eating the right type of fooid.Eat food rich in minerals, vitamins and all other essential nutrients. Exercise daily. Consult a nutritionist and get your diet chart made. Stay away from fattening junk food. Try gaining weight in a healthy way. Inability to gain weight can be due to eating disorders, thyrotoxicosis,any infection, worm infestation, chronic diarrhea, cancer etc.All these conditions will have associated symptoms.
I do not want to create further problems, force her, or make eating any more stressful that it already is....but I am sick with worry over her not eating. I wonder how she can sustain life at times. She is ahead of her milestones developmentally, very bright, very active, and happy most of the time. I do give her PolyViSol daily. During these episodes she will lose weight, so she never really seems to get ahead as far as growth. She is very thin.
Well, i think that it's fine if you want to try this on your own. i think it's good you want to see a nutritionist and get on a diet plan, and exercise is always good, but you need to be honest with your nutritionist about your eating habbits in order for her to help you, and you also want to make sure not to overexersice because that can be just another forn of an eating disorder.
re having and ask for advice. Perhaps your
doctor can give you a referral to a nutritionist who can help you figure out
a good food plan for you.
Aside indulging in moderate amounts of physical exercise it is also essential to maintain a healthy diet plan. It is important to know that a diet plan is not about cutting down calories; it’s about ‘healthy’ eating. When one cuts down on calories, the body sends a signal to the brain which in turn turns on the ‘stress hormones’ and the body switches into the ‘starvation mode’ and paradoxically one may notice an increased weight.
What kinds of foods are you eating? Are you exercising?
The best advice I can give you is that you need to speak to a nutritionist and your primary care doctor. Have them run your blood work and find out if there is some sort of metabolic issue? Like your thyroid or something?
Also talk to your doctor about a weight loos supplement he may or may not prescribe to help.
I discovered I had anorexia in 6th grade. I didn't eat much until this year, I am now in 8th grade. I still have worries but it never stops me from eating healthily. But now I think im overeating. I have a little theory though. In 6th and 7th grade the first time of the day I would eat is when I got home. I'd then eat lots of junk food. Now in 8th grade I eat even more because I don't set up caloric limits.
I would suggest walking but don't over do it (35-45 min 3 days a week to start) with a combination of eating soups (Cam. Chunky soups) over rice. It's very filling with green salads. And switch out ur sodas for water.
