[QUOTE="TeddyTottie, post: 2217096, member: 519030"] Hi I’m very much a newbie too (diagnosed at the beginning of December) and my foray into LCHF gradually morphed into de facto keto, although that wasn’t my initial intention. I certainly found my appetite greatly affected in the first few weeks, and for a short while I was extremely fickle about food and just the thought of it was sometimes nauseating. Things have normalised now but it’s a new normal, I only eat when I am hungry and I don’t get hungry until lunchtime most days so I have moved to only two meals a day. Somehow I have also slid effortlessly into intermittent fasting with only one meal a day a couple of times a week - if I’m not hungry for lunch I skip it and just have dinner. I tend not to be rigid about the IF days, if I feel starving for sausages at 8am, I have sausages! I am slowly learning to trust my body to regulate its own intake. This does, to me, feel a much more natural way of eating compared to the 3 meals and constant grazing I had previously become accustomed to. Hope you feel more adjusted soon :cat: [/QUOTE]
