see, i have a very small stomach. i usually get really really hungry and think i need to eat a lot, but then i eat only half as much as i thought i could and then about 30 to 45 minutes later i get starved again.
well, for the past 4-7 days, thats completely changed. im not very hungry at all. i usually need to eat about every two hours. right now its 6:45 PM and i have only had cereal, yogurt, and juice today. thats a major drop in diet. and im afraid my metabolic rate is going to slow dramatically and then when i try to eat again, ill gain weight. or im afraid im going to lose a lot of weight and get sick. im very thin and im 5'4". im 15/f and i weigh between 103-106. my weight has stayed in that range for about...5 to 6 months? anyways, i've also been very very tired every day. and like i said, im just never hungry anymore. i've been getting plenty of sleep, trust me.
Eat 3 meals a day, go running or excersize, and stay away from too much McDonalds. Dont worry too much about losing or gaining weight until it's a problem. You're pretty good where you're at so don't worry as much.
Until this starts going on for a lot longer don't worry. If it really bothers you just see a regular physician.
But really, you don't have anything to worry about. You could just have a minor cold or poisoning er something.

You should ask yourself some questions: are you doing anything different maybe something you are not comfortable with yet? It could be that you are under a lot of strees. The first thing you should do is don't panic sometimes things just happen with your body it doesn't mean you are sick. If you are a girl, it could very well be bloating from your period. I can say that hunger is related to the amount of blood sugar levels. So if you ate tons of carbs earlier in the day or the day before you may not be hungry for a while. If you are truly concerned, as you should be with changes in your body, set up an appointment with your doctor. [ sleak06's advice column | Ask sleak06 A Question ]
