Question 1

No: It may immediately after if exercise is prolonged and/ or  intense.  Eventually your body will want to refuel.  Best to choose whole foods in proper portions (think 1/2 plate with fruits and veggies, 1/4 with whole grain carb and 1/4 with a protein).

Question 2

Cardio Excercises: By doing excercises that increase your heart rate, also cause an increase in your sympathtic (fight or flight) hormones that cause your appetite to decrease over time.

Question 3

will my appetite increase if i exercise?

Accepted Answer

Yes: But don't let this stop you from exercising!  your body is communicating well when it signals to you that it needs more fuel after exercise.  Your job is to be careful in selecting what to eat and how much such that you reap even more benefits from the exercise that you did than just burning calories.  The increased appetite is an opportunity to feed your body what it needs!

Question 4

does aerobic exercise suppress appetite?

Accepted Answer

No: If anything, regular exercise will increase your appetite because of the amount of calories your body needs to support your exercise.  Exercise will increase your body's basal metabolic rate (the rate at which your body burns calories) for up to 16 hours after exercise. A balanced diet and regular exercise is recommended for all.

Question 5

Yes.: Not only does exercise actually help control appetite in the long term, but it also helps your body use ingested calories more efficiently.

Question 6

does too much exercise decrease your appetite?

Accepted Answer

Temporarily: Only temporarily then your body will want to refuel.

Question 7

is losing weight under a month without exercise and an increase in appetite normal?

Accepted Answer

Need more details: You need to tell us what your usual/normal weight is(over last 6 months) and how much weight you have lost?
You should record your weight in a diary and do so daily or once weekly over 2 months.
If you lose more than 2-3 pounds over this period of time, you should get checked by a physician. One likely cause  is an over active Thyroid gland.
This can be easily verified with a blood test(TFT).

Question 8

appetite suppressant or is exercise a better solution?

Accepted Answer

Neither.: Appetite suppressants are a temporary and dangerous weight loss cop-out. Exercise is part of a good plan for weight loss, but it won't work by itself. You need a good, healthy low-carb diet, plus a good, sensible exercise program. Less calories in...More calories out...It's really not rocket science!
