If I was losing weight from not eating, I'd just start sipping on protein shakes. Problem solved!

I bet Robert is just holding out for a cheeseburger and fries. Who wouldn't lose weight on a diet of kale smoothies?

D might be worth a look too. The environment during mealtimes could be triggering some aversion to eating.

C sounds like a good place to start. If he's only interested in foods with low caloric content, that could be contributing to the weight loss.

I'd go with B. The meal content and texture of the food could be a huge factor in why he's refusing to eat. Let's not jump to conclusions here.

Definitely option A - medical conditions. We can't just assume it's a behavioral issue without first ruling out any underlying physical causes.

But what about the meal content/texture of food? Maybe that's the issue.
