I broke up with my partner, and I'm losing weight. I know it sounds like a good thing, but I'm 6'1" and used to weigh 145. Now I weigh 130. 145 was underweight, but I looked in the mirror last night, and I look like a skeleton. I'm just not as hungry as I used to be. Should I even be worried about it?

I am 6'2" and weigh in at 210. I work out a lot to keep fit. ( I am not bulked up) You could use a high caloric shake to increase your weight. However, you should take the above poster's advice; see a doctor. If you do not think you need to be treated for depression, at least see a physician so he/she can monitor your health as you begin to regain your weight. Good luck buddy, I know EXACTLY where you are with this; been there. I wish you the best.
Sincerely,

You should be at least 152 pounds for your height.
People should actually not consider their weight when wanting to lose weight... most people need to just firm up.
At 130 pounds though, you're underweight!
Depending on if you workout out or not, if you don't, you need to eat at least 1800 calories per day with 88 grams or 352 calories coming from protein. When you start getting to 152 pounds, start measuring your % of body fat also. You should be 152 pounds and <14% body fat.

Sounds like you're depressed over the break-up. You should talk to your doctor about it. Therapy and/or depression medication may be necessary in your case. 6'1" and 130 lbs. is way to skinny -- believe me, I was 6'4" and 145 at one point.

145 lbs. is not yet underweight accordign to BMI... but 130lbs is... as long as your penis is large, it's ok.
