I am going to try to keep this brief. I am 5'7" and currently 163 pounds. I started losing weight in June and was 193 pounds. Over the first 2.5 months I was doing great, losing an average of .5 to 1.5 pounds a week. I was hitting my macros fairly consistently and really reshaping the way my brain thinks about food. I have always had a lot of food noise in my head a long as I can remember. I would think about food all the time, no matter if I was dieting or not. Trying to change my habits was helping, but didn't make it go away.
Then something flipped and 2 weeks ago, I woke up not hungry and had to force myself to eat by the end of a busy day. I thought it was a fluke, next day same thing. And it hasn't stopped. I feel in my stomach that I am hungry, but my brain has no desire to eat. I try to eat and just can barely make myself. I have to make myself drink protein shakes because I am hundreds of calories under my budget of 1,300 every day. I have lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks.
I know this is not sustainable. I don't think I chose this. I am a bit freaked out. I want to get back to hitting my macros and having the energy to hike. Can anyone offer any insight? Or help? I plan to talk to my therapist next week, but could use some insight from others who may have direct experience. Thank you.
