  • No Appetite...

    Morning all,

    I have read lots of threads on here about losing your appetite and taken on the advice about having low carb fat high "snacks" but I am really struggling - I really am having to force myself to eat more that one meal a day.

    Its great, because I feel amazing, I am drinking a lot of water, taking my vits and minerals and my skin, hair and nails are sooo healthy.

    Just concerned that I am going to "balls" this up because I just cannot eat more than my breakfast and a small lunch!

    Yesterday I had a gorgeous omelette, with veggies in it, it was so yummy but it got to 7 30 in the evening and I remembered I just hadn't eaten anything else (very very unlike me!!!!)!!!!!!!

    Please help!!!

    You need to start eating or the weight loss will come to a screeching halt. You'll be in starvation mode...here is a link...http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...tion-mode.html. Dr. Atkins does say not to go more than 6 waking hours without eating.

      Thank OzLover. I did read that and I fully understand it - I am just having real trouble putting food in my mouth! I have brought a lovely salad with me for lunch and I will eat it, but the thought of it is making me feel a bit ewww!

      I am hoping this will pass!!!!!! I have loved the food I have been eating and I am sincerely really enjoying this diet. Just the last couple of days, eating has been a bit of a chore!!!

            try having a smaller omlette for b-fast.. maybe just one egg.. then small salad with dressing.. and maybe a single hamburger patty for dinner... smaller portions... dont go 6 hours w/out eating... you can do this... it just takes a bit of tweaking

              That is a brilliant idea - so simple but sometimes it takes an outside view to turn the lightbulb on! Thanks Sugar!!!!
