Weight loss: See your md for a thorough history and physical. Certain conditions , like hyperthyroidism, can cause a person to eat and not gain, or even lose weight. There are other possibilities. Get seen asap.

I feel hungry, but the moment I put food in my mouth, I become nauseous. I've lost 11lbs, and am now slightly underweight. I even wake from a dead sleep with nausea (I've only actually puked from it twice) and feel weak. What could this be?
