I've Lost My Appetite!

[MILF69]

Has anyone experienced this during comp. prep? I don't feel like eating...just not very hungry. Ending my first week of increased cardio (2, 30 min. sessions) and modified diet some more. My energy levels are down and so is strength a little. So with all this combined I have lost my appetite. Anyone else?

Most of the time I have NO problem eating - especially when bulking, but when cutting I sometimes have this problem. I think it's mental. You're doing increased cardio, and watching your diet to the T. I think that your subconscious is in "tip toe" mode and it controls your hunger a little bit. Does that make any sense?????

Yes it does! I went from craving everything last week to wanting nothing this week...I guess that's a good thing on the "cheat" side of it LOL!!

Don't deprive yourself of your regular meals as hard as it is. You'll end up overdoing it later I know you already know this, but we all need to hear it sometimes.

I know...I wont. I keep to my schedule even though I don't really want it. I need the energy source or I will be even worse than I already am. Thanks girl!!!

Hmmm you want to be careful that you aren't killing your metabolism. You should feel hungry when it's meal time, what are you calories around? You may want to start watching your temperature.

How are you feeling? mentality and physically?

Are you taking anything that's an appetite suppressant?

My cals are around 1500-1200 right now. I'm feeling fatigued one minutes and ready to go the next. My strength is down, not a ton but I can tell I cannot get through as many reps as I could before. I am not taking an appetite supp. right now. I was but I got off for the nex couple of weeks until I get closer to the show. I think my body was getting used to it. It really didn't make any difference in my energy levels anymore. Getting lots of sleep and still eating every two hours like I am supposed to.

When I get like this while dieting, I throw in a huge cheat meal

Hmmmmmm, he may be on to something here. Get the "juices" flowing again?!?!? Of course, with you being in contest prep, this may not be the best thing. How far out are you again?
