hi im new to this group. I’ve had some emotional upheaval lately and I have no appetite, not even hungry, I current weigh or should I say last Wednesday I was 205 lb but after a few issues and not really eating much, still drinking water, we’ll ok only really drinking water for the last 5 days I’m down to 191 lb I realise that this isn’t normally healthy but I’ve not been hungry at all I think I’ve had maybe two stomach rumbles the whole time, today I made myself eat a couple of eggs. I can be in the kitchen cooking things and can be around people eating but I just don’t feel like eating. I’m not missing the taste of food or the process of eating it. It’s not like I’m drinking gallons of water to fill my stomach just been sipping throughout the day.
So basically I’m just asking people opinions on way my bodies decide it doesn’t require food. It’s not like my body doesn’t have excess fat it could lose
And for me I always have to eat something to get it going again where I am hungry every 4 or 5 hours
But I have I to eat a small meal
One thing I do know is that your body hates change and once it’s used to something it wants to keep it that way
Try for a few days to eat something small every 4 hours
You f your metabolism is in really bad shape it will take a few weeks to get it reset.
Protein shakes with vitamins are good to start with
I hope this helps
I have been there
You have to keep trying
