No appetite today

So this morning I had about 10 slices of pepperoni (the only thing that sounded good). It is now almost 2pm and I have no appetite. Nothing sounds good. So I'm just drinking my flavored water. Does this happen often to anyone else?

    It happens to me on occasion. I typically regain my appetite by dinner time...but it balances out the other super hungry days, I think. And then fasting occurs naturally sometimes, so yeah, it happens. I just did plain water the last time I water fasted.

    I'm not meaning to fast, but I really haven't had much since yesterday at like 6pm. I had a salad. But oh well I'm sure I will be hungry in a few hours. Thankfully I have some pepperoni left at work if I need it!

    I have days like that. Then I have other days where I'm extra hungry. I just figure one balances out the other! :)

    I've been not hungry for the past 4 days.

    I've made myself eat today, because I was having dizzy spells. I think it's likely pretty normal.

    Thankfully no dizzy spills. I actually feel like I have tons of energy. I just had a 1/4 cup of walnuts and I'm good so far.

    This is most likely due to electrolytes imbalance (i.e. Keto flu). Need to up your sodium/potassium. At the very least, hope you are drinking bone broth or bouillon cubes on the days you are not eating.

    Pretty much every day is like that for me. I just have coffee with MCT and butter and don't usually eat til around 2 or 3. Even then, I'm not starving.
