Recently for a few weeks my appetite seems to have...gone!
Well kind of, what happens is I'll be really hungry like that water in mouth hungry and i'll start to eat tea and all of a sudden I feel full after hardly eating and start to feel sick. I don't think it's psycological but it's really annoying!
Also i've been getting stupidly long head aches again and I'm constantly tired and I get dizzy quite easily. I take it this is to do with not eating a lot.
Anyone else had this? Or know what I should do, preferably not involving going to my GP

I don't know why it happens but when it does I try and have something even if it's a slice of toast. But it is hard when your appetite has gone and you can't face having something to eat.
I'd say just drink lot's of yummy water yyyuuuummmyy **COUGHS** Maybe, if you can't stomach (spelling?) food, then you should drink filling things like milk or smoothie's. Or a cup-a-soup. :-)

I'm hoping it's not psycological and it's not because I just don't want to eat. I've been drinking a lot more but I suppose I can't really live off that...
I get a bit like that with food sometimes, but for me its because I used to eat a LOT and now that I haven't been, my stomach has shrunk, which is probably what's happening to yours right now.
Lots of little meals and often will help you to stretch your stomach out again without overloading it and will kick start your metabolism again so you'll be able to eat a bit more.

But seriously, if it gets worse you probs should take some vitimin (spelling?) pills.

I usually find fruit is easy to eat, like an apple sliced up or some melon slices or even a tin of mixed fruit. Nice and refreshing and usually makes me feel hungry so then I eat!
if you're feeling dizzy etc, you should go to the doc.
