I have lost weight as well. I’ve always been small, weighing about 113-115 when healthy. I dropped to 99 lbs and still no appetite but hubby has been trying to beef me up. One thing that seems to work for me is Smoothies. I really enjoy them even if not hungry.
He makes me 1 or2 per day.
He puts 4-5 fruits, heavy cream, and Who knows what else. But it has boosted my weight to 103-105 and holding steady!

Yes indeed, I forgot to mention smoothies! You can really make them tasty & with plenty of calories. I used full-fat greek yogurt instead of cream, even added protein powder & veggies like carrots and avocado. When my throat hurt, it was soothing too.
Now that my weight is stable, I don't "load" them with calories, my grands will drink them too if we pretend they are adult food that they can only have as a special treat.
Think I'll make a pitcher today - we have a refrigerator full of quite ripe fruit & berries!
