Loosing my appetite...

Not really a problem but more of a "development"...I seem to have lost my appetite. There are a few possibilities as to why this has happened. First and foremost I think it is because I'm busy. I've gone from zero to 50 in 3 months, this is a major change in my activity level and how much time I have on my hands. I'm just not hungry and sometimes forget to eat when I am on the "go go go". I'm not depressed anymore so I'm not eating for comfort...but a side effect of the cipralex (which I am almost off of totally) is a loss of appetite. And one last possibility is my arthritis. I'm not sure why but one of the symptoms of AS (ankylosing spondylitis) is a loss of appetite and I believe that the last time I lost a whole bunch of weight (9-6 years ago) the AS was a contributing factor.
Overall I see this as a balancing...the body works in weird ways and I am working towards having balance in my life again and loosing my appetite is probably a part of that in some weird way. But I am trying to eat healthy and find new ways to eat on the go...
