recently i started dating someone, and usually i tend to eat pretty decent because its one of the few things i enjoy, but ever since i started dating ive pretty much lost the desire to eat and only do so when my stomach begins to hurt & even then i only eat enough to get by. the last time i experienced something like this was when i was under a lot of stress, but now im as happy as ive ever been but still am experiencing the same thing. considering im a good 30-40lbs overweight i do not consider this a problem, im just curious as to what the deal is.

hmm... sounds like you might be in LOVE!! WHen i first fell in love i was a wreck! I couldn't eat or sleep! It happens at first. It is just such an over-whelming feeling! If you feel that you love her maybe you should hint around about love and see how she reacts!
If i am totally off.. then maybe you should check with a doc to see why you no longer have an appetite

Yes. When people get into relationships they can either take on habits from the other person, ie, eating more or eating less or different kinds of foods. Sometimes when you are really in to a person you dont feel as hungry. It may sound silly to put it that way, but I have gone through the same thing whenever I have started dating someone. I just wasnt hungry. It is pretty normal and common. Go with it and good luck with the girlfriend!

Ha aw, that happened to me once - that's what we humans call "butterflies". You must really like this person, and she probably makes you knowingly or unknowingly nervous. Try to drink a lot of liquids, because I know it's not easy to force yourself to eat. And if you can manage to stomach a little something here and there, that wouldn't hurt either. As long as you're not getting light-headed or going overboard with it, you should be fine. Congratulations on a new lady =)

In the past, I usually lost weight at the beginning of a relationship. You are nervous around them and dont eat as much because you are so blissful and happy.
Then you realize you are really hungry. You start eating like a pig and burping and farting in front of each other.

this is me. My girlfriend eats way less then me, and I wasn't a pig or anything, but I can put away some food. Never have been overweight either. But lately I've noticed that my pants don't fit me and I just look smaller now. We share all of our food and don't get separate plates. It works, I think I just need to eat some other things here and there. Thanks for asking this question, you helped me out also! Good luck, and happy holidays!

It means that you normally associate food for comfort and a good sense of well-being (aka happiness).
So before, you used to go get a milkshake to cheer yourself up, but now the relationship makes you continually happy and eliminates your prior need for sugar to boost your mood.

NORMAL! You'll get over it in time. I lost 20 pounds when my (now husband ) & I first got together. It's the "love hormones". Unfortunately, I gained it all back after we were together for 2 years.

must be the excitement factor of having a new girlfriend. same thing happened to me when me and my husband were just a few weeks into our relationship. so i guess some people are like that. we are not alone. hehehe... different strokes for different folks.

i don't think that is normal. maybe something is medically wrong? i would give it a few days but if i were you i might go to a doctor and get checked out. maybe you are having stomach issues? ulcers perhaps?
