Hi there. You mentioned you had started working out. That has been the thing that has helped my son the most. Putting muscle on has greatly improved his health. He drinks protein and weight gainer shakes along with his workout routine. It has taken him a couple of years to get where he is, but he's so much more comfortable with how he looks and feels.

I know my son goes through periods of time where he has almost no appetite. He tells me that if he puts anything in his mouth, he will gag. Other times I can't fill him up. I find myself adding extra fat to almost everything in an attempt to make up for the times he doesn't eat much. Also, he is almost always up for a snickers, so I keep them in stock. Sometimes even when you can't stomach food, you can go for candy. lol

I can't help myself with this next comment. Since you said you've been under weight your whole life, I would think your wife knew what you looked like when she married you. I'm sorry she told you she is ashamed of you. I think you should grab a snickers, go fishing, and leave her at home! The fish don't care what you look like.
