Eating problems

My niece does not want to eat and never feels hungry. She is nine and has lost 10 pounds over a couple of months. I am so worried and wonder if something is medically wrong with her! It is like her brain doesn"t let her stomach know she is hungry. Please help!

I suggest you go and visit a doctor, if she's loosing weight. If it keeps up, things could become worse.

Good luck.
