I have gone know without eating for about 3 days. And every time i look at food ( no matter what it is) I get sick.

Answer
This sounds like classic behavioral patterns of someone who has binge eating disorder. You might want to seek out appropriate counseling to deal with your issues with not wanting to eat one minute and feeling sick at the sight of food the next minute.
