No appetite--struggling to eat

[Cota129 0]

I'm 2 years and 3 mo. post surgery. I've lost 110 lb. and feel great. I've gone from a size 28 to a size 12. Lately, though, I have lost all interest in food. I'm not too tight, I've had the same fill for quite some time and have been happy with my restriction. It's just that I have lost any and all desire for food. I have no interest, I make myself eat because I know I have to. I did just start back on Prozac because of depression and anxiety, and am wondering if that might be the cause. It seems that the lack of food interest started at about the same time I started the Prozac. Thoughts or suggestions anyone?

Yes that could be what is causing your lost of interest in food. There are many side effects to medications, so i would suggest you talk to your doctor about it and see what they have to say! BTW........Congrats on your weightloss success! :cursing:

Ditto on the side effects your doc can always switch up your meds..
