Six+ weeks into the program now and I'm eating less then before. Way less, probably half. Just like pouring out the last 1/4 or so of my beers I'm leaving food on the plate. I'm not complaining, I need to lose some weight.

I'm curious if it's some sort of appetite suppression with the Nal or the blocked endorphins taking the pleasure out of food.

Curious if anyone else has experienced this.

Yeah, it ruins the fun of food. In fact, David Sinclair now runs a weight loss clinic where he applies the Sinclair method to food addiction.

Yes, I've noticed the same thing -- I'll go six or eight hours and then realize I've forgotten to eat entirely. Or sometimes I'll be acutely conscious of physical hunger, but nothing in the fridge seems appetizing enough to bother with so I don't eat. But the effect seems to vary by day, and I still crave and enjoy certain foods sometimes. (I wonder if hormones have something to do with it as well because I've always noticed profound differences in my various appetites depending on time of the month.) I look forward to seeing what happens when I start having AF days and freeing up those receptors for non-alcoholic pleasures.

Kate63,
That's it exactly. Nothing seems appetizing. Thanks for letting me know I'm not the only one.
