I'm 38 and have found that I don't eat as much as I use to either, which is a good thing since our metabolism slows down as we age..  |

I was wondering about that Kelly....the metabolism factor. I'm just as active as I was when I was younger: in fact, moreso. I'm not complaining about this change in eating habits...it just baffles me...  |

Maybe stress.. After cooking I think I am just to tired to eat. Then again maybe we should consider ourselves lucky.. it should help us keep the pounds off.. LOL.. I know I lost over 20 pounds after I started losing my appetite. |

I guess I am the piggy here.... I was always tiny all my life then when I hit 31 **BAM. I have always been a big eater and found no change between 21 or 35. WHAT I do find are things like having to put more lotion on my hands, getting out of breath,etc,etc.. I can order at a resturant & it's gone...LOL CARDS  |

oh CARDS, I so hear ya about the lotion. I swear, in this cold climate during wintertime <Indiana> my skin dries...if I don't use lotion, it literally cracks which is not only unbecoming to my vanity <lo> but painful as well... |

Stormchaser...yes, stress might play into this too. I know at times when I cook a big meal, by the time it's finished I'm simply sick of looking at it...lol.... |

Well I'm not over 30 as you all know. i'm 24 but to shed some light on the subject its body chemistry changing. Which usually occurs every 7 years or so (more or less often depending on your own body system). But i too in the last year can only eat a small amount before getting full. I know my body chemistry is changing so I'll use that for a good reason :) lol  |
