Sorry but the automatic assumption of anorexia is understood but
innaccurate. I am consuming an average of 3,000 calories a day. I try
to make them healthy ones for at least 2,000 of them.

Today for example ws 1,200 calories in potato chips. Not healthy I
know but I had 2,000 calories of healthy fruits, meats and veggies,
breads, and dairy.

I might add, at 5ft 1in, 105 is not at all horribly underweight. In
fact, it's pretty much where Doctors want us to be. I just like better
curves at 110lbs.

It just takes me eating a lot more than you do, to maintain it is all.

PS: 106lbs just now but weighing every day doesnt really work. To be
slightly deicate about it, norma bowl rhythems have a sway there.
