    Yeah, you really do need more than that. Adding peanut butter or coconut oil to your shake will boost the calories and add some good fats (for the peanut butter, you have to mix it really well with a blender or it will remain chunky.)

    Your breakfast looks yummy! However, on the theory that eating sugar causes your blood sugar to spike and fall, making you feel hungry, maybe try replacing some of the fats in your breakfast with fruit? Maybe even a little sugary, like toast with a good fruit spread.

    Well, that's what I'm saying...changing when you eat the sugars (fruit) and fats might help a little by letting the sugar do it's hungry-making magic early in the day and letting the fats fill you up later in the day.

    Does OP need the calories from lunch? Will she survive if she can't eat those calories? Only time will tell the outcome.

    ???????????

    I really think the point of this thread went over your head.

    Her concern is lack of appetite and barely able to eat 700 calories in a day. It's also a sudden change from normal. People aren't concerned with the fact that she didn't eat lunch, but the fact that shes forcing down protein shakes just to get to 700 calories.

    There is nothing wrong with eating all of your day for breakfast. Your body is not sick, it is satisfied. It is puzzling to me why not being hungry is considered a symptom of a disease.
    And yes sudden decreased appetite can be a symptom of another problem.



    To the OP, this may be a little odd, but are you by chance constipated?

    Seek medical advice..
    700 calories is just wayyy too low for real Your appetite should naturally be proportional to your energy expenditure and you are obviously expending much more,but still don't feel like consuming similar amount.This is not normal,don't let it continue that way.
  • In my opinion I would cut your water down to 8 glasses and see if it makes a difference. In my opinion I believe it could just be your drinking too much water. In usa 8 is glasses is the goal. If I drink more than that I could go all day with out eating anything and it is a bother. Call your doctor though just to make sure there is nothing else going on. Food is a mysterious thing sometimes. Write down what you eat and when and also the amount of water you consume and give that to your doctor and it'll help him see the picture and get a better understanding of what could be going on. Good luck to you. <3

    glad you're feeling better but if it continues, please go back

    yeah he believes so it's got like 350g caffeine in per serving. And I drink it twice a day. Its taking my hunger away. That's what's causing me all the trouble ;)

    I'm glad you found what was up :) like another poster said, make sure to go back if it starts up again!

    Don't beat yourself up over not realizing or knowing, because it happens to the best of us. We're fallible.

    didnt realise there were 2 identical threads - copied and pasted what I wrote in other thread......

    So this has been happening for 3 days?
    before that you had a normal appetite and ate a reasonable amount?

    Most likely you have a viral gastric infection making you nauseaus - or you are pregnant.

    I would wait and see if it sorts itself within few days.
    If it does, dont worry about it, just carry on as normal
    If it doesnt ,do a pregnancy test - if that is negative see your doctor for a medical check up.
