Anyone else have work messing with their appetite? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by cxmsxut99
I’m mostly just curious if this is a me thing or not. I’m recovering from an eating disorder, but since starting to work I’ve just come home with zero appetite. Even at work I’m like “eh” to the idea of eating anything and just have some small drinks throughout my shift. Is this a normal thing? Does it even out? I’m mostly just asking because I’m experiencing some rapid weight loss.

This happens to me too. I try to carry the momentum I’ve got going right after work and immediately eat something, even if it’s just fast food, otherwise I end up not eating that day. If that doesn’t work, just keep snacks on hand- I have a giant bag of lightly salted popcorn next to me at all times.

work definitely made ED an issue again. back in therapy for it. 🙃 packing food and making sure i eat before i go in makes a difference.

My best suggestion is to bring real food with you. I'm not saying pack a whole lunch, but a bag of raw veggies or nuts for your break. Something less processed and easy to eat.

I realized late last year but I wasn't eating anything at work and had no appetite when I got home, but just nibbling on a healthy snack or two has made my body realize it does need fuel
