Eating less and my stomach hurt?

[Zendrya]

So I have been eating considerably less in the last couple weeks in general. My stomach has been hurting but not like hunger pains. It is just a dull uncomfortable throb. Do you think this has anything to do with my eating habits lately and if not what do you think it could be?

Have you been less active throughout the last few weeks? If yes then that's why you are not as hungry. And not eating enough calories and other nutrients that are recommended you will end up getting stomach pain. It's your brain's way of sending you a sinal that you need to eat more. I know that it's hard to force yourself to eat when you have stomach pain but if you can do it then it will help.
I experienced something similar many years ago and my grandfather explained to me pretty much what I just wrote. Except I had more things involved but that might come later.

I have been considerably less active. Thank you. This was really helpful :)

Of course, your stomach is getting smaller. Pretty normal when you eat less/dieting.

I get that pain when i dont eat.. Why are you eating less for? Your body is still growing, give it the nutrients that it needs..

[Zendrya]

I don't know why. I just haven't been hungry. If I am I get full after half of my meal is consumed. Today I had like a few blocks of cheese and at supper I ate like half if not less as everyone else and I had forced myself to eat a few cookies because I need some calories. I've lost 4 pounds in the last 2 days. That might not be a problem if I gain it back soon as weight fluctuates day to day. My boyfriend thinks my lack of appetite is due to stress.

Are you feeling stress?

[Zendrya]

Ya a bit. Stress at home and school is starting up and I'm in advanced courses.

[misscoffeehead]

Possibly so, but that shouldn't make you not want to eat all the time..

The only thing I can think of besides hunger is acid reflux
