Hi. I really dont know whats going on. Ive always loved to eat. But for the past couple weeks Ive lost my appetite. I will get hungry, but once i see food or start to eat im suddenly not hungry anymore. Sometimes when im eating i just feel instantly full (a glass of Orange Juice felt like it filled me up this morning). Sometimes i feel nauseas while eating.

Other times i just dont feel like eating at all. I dont know whats going on. Nothing much big has changed in my life, its pretty much the same. The only thing thats changed is a new boyfriend, but i doubt that would make me stop eating. A few weeks ago i was put on a new birthcontrol but it was before then when i was starting to lose my appeitite.

However, i rarely get a break at work and even more rarely eat there. Ill be hungry but wont have time to eat so sort of forget about being hungry for a bit. Ill get home, want to eat, but suddenly just cant eat much cause food just doesnt seem appetizing anymore.

Whats going on? Ive dropped 4 pounds in the past month.

Hey OK I know exactly how you feel. and unfortantly I can't tell you why. But I would def love for someone to be able to let me know why. Is it possible to be pregnant? Like is this a sign of being pregnant? Somone said that today and now I'm starting to flip out. HELP US PLEASE!!

Oh my god I def know what you are feeling too.
I usually eat alot and it isn't always healthy either but recentley i can't eat anything.
I will start to eat it or i will buy something and them waste it ... it sometimes makes me want to throw up if i am trying to force myself to eat or drink.
My friend told me yesterday that it could be from stress, and i sure have had some stress recentley ... especially since my boyfriend just moved out of my house and never really gave me a reason why.
but ... it anyone else knows something new for me, that would be great.
I have had a lot of stress, things that are a lot worse than my boyfriend moving out and this has never happened to me before. It's odd.

Did you ever figure out why you had this problem? I've been having the same problem and I'm really freaking out.

So as a man, I am having this same problem. The reason is usually stress. You say that nothing is really changing with your life, so you can rule that out. You say that you skip meals sometimes at work because you will forget because you are too busy. That is why.

Your body has grown accustomed to not having much to work off of with food, so your stomach will shrink. If you want to get your appetite back, the best way to do it would probably eat large portions and push through being full. If you throw it up, you throw it up. But you have to get your stomach back to the ability to support that kind of appetite.


Hope this helps.

I'm in the same boat. I was just recently fired from a place I've been for 10 years for no valid reason. I'm so stressed out because I have two little ones to support. Now I have no appetite. I feel hungry but when I eat, it's very little portions. About the same size portion that my four year old eats. I'm dropping weight dramatically which is fine I guess because I am a bigger girl. Just not the way I wanted to lose it.

Me too. I guess there are worse problems to have but ive lost serious weight that I cannot afford to lose. I was normal weight for my age and height for past 10-15 years, and now ive lost more than just fat, now we are getting down to muscle loss and my skin is just hanging on me like a 90yr old woman.

I just cant eat. I dont feel nauseas. I try to force myself but I can get past maybe 2 bites. Yesterday I ate 1/2 of a banana. Thats it. I couldnt even eat a whole banana!

Worst news...........I do not work in the trade but Im a trained chef. Food has been my life!

I have significant "break-up" stress in my life right now too, this seems to be the common thread here. Dont know what other thing to blame it on. My Dr says to take supplements and drink that nasty Ensure stuff. Eww.

I have the same problem and I'm not pregnant. Im a virgin. It's like chewing a carpet and nothing ever looks good. It's reached the point where I have to force tiny amounts of food down my throat in order to not faint.

Omg. Me too. I never have an appetite. And when I do, I can only take a small portion in, then I just can't eat. I went from 145 to 131 in like 3 months. I feel like i literally lose 5 lbs over night. Heellllpppppp

It also may be due to stress . If your stressed about something , it'll make a special place in your head that makes you not want to eat .

I have lost 35 lbs in 2 and a half years. I by no means were trying to, I was at my ideal weight. When I thought about it, that was right after my Dad died. My Dr. said it was stress, but even with meds for the stress I still have the same problem. I feel for you. If you have not had that happen, then you can not understand. It really stinks. I would love to gain some of my weight back.

Just reading these other replies has me convinced it's stress related. My husband told me he wasn't happy anymore and he's booked a cruise and I'm not invited so I believe it's stress.
