My boyfriend has only eaten toast and pepsi in the last 2yrs after glandfever & gets sick when he eats. he has become really skinny and has no energy ?

Asking for trouble: Your boyfriend could never be well on a chronic diet of only toast and pepsi. You should insist that he be seen for a proper medical evaluation and nutritional counceling. If this has been ongoing for 2 years, it is likely that there are severe nutritional deficiencies.

Anorexia: Your boyfriend is probably anorexic. And if his only calories are sugar and bread then he may very well die of this disease. Without proteins he cannot possibly live long or be healthy. Anorexia is treatable and it can affect men just like it affects females. I would wish for him immediate access to a trained expert in this disease.

Eating: It sounds like he has an eating disorder and if that is truly all he eats he may have some significant medical complications as well. He needs to see a doctor for a full exam and blood tests before addressing his eating behavior.
