Did you lose your appetite during cancer treatment? If so, have you gotten it back since then? I am pretty sure a major component of my weight loss has been that I pretty much eat by rote now, and I was wondering if you are in a similar situation.
Regardless of the reason, congratulations, and I hope you get to the physical shape you desire.
Yes. The mental mouth-feel of food had no appeal. I didn't have a nausea problem, but I had no desire to eat. I would imagine the taste and feel of, say, fettucini Alfredo in my mouth and turn up my nose.
Now, I definitely have my appetite back and have to consciously choose to not eat, or to eat less. Fortunately, I'm finding it takes a bit less to feel satisfied than it used to several years ago.
