Are there any suggestions you could give me for my low appetite? I almost never eat breakfast and I do not snack often. I only eat breakfast when I am on vacation. If I snack, I never eat a full portion. I am happy with my weight, and I have been eating this way most of my adult life. As I progressed in my career, my stress levels increased. I already have a low appetite, but it becomes worse when I am stressed and working to meet deadlines. What advice would you give me? – HUNGER GAMES
To be honest, I would advise a detail client intake and a consultation. Although you are happy with your weight, you could learn if you are properly nourished, how to ensure you are receiving adequate nutrition, and you could receive personalized recommendations.
I cannot offer advice regarding your low and reduced appetite without more information. However, I can offer some suggestions that might improve your nutritional intake.
• Eat mindfully. When you eat, eat for nourishment and enjoyment. Try not to eat just because you must. Try to choose a meal, snack, or food you will enjoy eating for its taste and its nutritional benefits.
• Avoid empty calories.
• Eat quality, nutrient dense foods. Eat whole, fresh foods regularly.
• Hydrate. Drink water consistently throughout the day.
• Consider implementing meal planning and creating a schedule.
• Establish a self-care routine. Make stress management a priority.
• Seek professional guidance. You may benefit from an individualized meal plan to help guide you on what foods to eat, how much to eat, and if you need increased calorie intake.
Hope you find these tips useful. Be encouraged.
