Yes it does: If you dont eat, you start burning the fat reserves in your body and that produces ketones and causes ketosis, which makes you loose your appetite.

I dont feel like eating It started yesterday and I woke up and just had no appetite I felt hunger but didnt want to eat, at all so I didnt eat anything yesterday And the same thing happened to day, I dont want to lose weight or anything either! ?
I never seem to have an appetite and go days without eating without noticing that i'm doing it. When I do eat i seem to lose even more weight.
For a couple of months I have been feeling bloated and sometimes nauseated while eating. I would be unable to eat as much as normal. I actually began losing my appetite.
Ever since I was very little a couple times a week whenever Im hungry I get this sharp aching sensation on my middle/lower back that can last for a few seconds or a couple minutes. It also makes me lose my appetite but at eating relieves the pain?
