UNWELL Why is it if someone who is thin looks unwell if they are drawn (tired, gaunt, haggard) but after they relax for a day or a week they look good again

Just like going for a long time without sleep makes you look unwell, so does being underweight. They both have to do with the energy in your body. To be healthy your body must maintain a certain level of energy, energy which we get by eating, sleeping, and drinking (water XD). If you take one of those things away your body is no longer balanced. Someone who is underweight can somewhat make up their loss of energy (loss of food) by sleeping/resting more often, giving them a healthy appearence once more. Still, if someone's weight is affecting their appearence to a point of it being very noticible, this is a sign that they are at an unhealthy weight which needs to be dealt with. ]

If the thin person looks tired, gaunt and haggard, it means that they probably haven't gotten enough sleep. If they get to bed on time every night for a week or so, then they stop looking gaunt and tired and haggard and look good again. ]
Hello there,
If a person is very thin, their body literally eats itself just to stay alive.
A period of rest where they can lessen the strain on their body will allow it to recover a little.
They may look "good" to themselves, but probably not to others.
The real answer, if they are thin enough to look drawn or gaunt... is to increase the amount they eat and give their body what it needs to survive without killing itself.
Take care,
