Hi guys. As title says (not sure if this counts as a medical thread? If so please remove.)
She used to eat very well and would often finish her tea before I had even finished mine (which is saying something). Lately, I'd say the past 2 weeks, she has hardly eaten anything. Today as an example she has had nothing to eat all day (and even went to work for 9 hours) up until I just cooked a cottage pie and veg. She ate around 5 mouthfuls of the pie and a few bits of broccoli and said she was full.
The other morning I cooked her poached eggs and bacon on toast, something which she loves, and just point blank refused to eat it to the point we ended up having a big argument over all this. She says she's feeling fine and there is nothing to worry about bla bla bla......
Now i'm getting mad about it. I know this is not good for her but she just can't see what's wrong. She's loosing too much weight. Now she has recently finished watching a season of 'Britain's next top model' and a part of me thinks she wants to look like the girls on there, (who are mostly stick thin btw).
Has anybody on here had a similar sort of issue? I'm worried she's going to become anorexic or make herself really ill, not something we need with an 18 month old child. Am I right to get angry with her like I have been?
Thanks for reading.
