    Yep, it sure can. Your body goes into starvation mode and lowers your metabolism as it tries to conserve as much energy as it can. And tries to store anything you eat instead of using it for fuel.

    Yes, but my nut says exercise helps. Exercise ups that metabolism - it has been key for me. And I'm no marathon training guru, but I make sure I get it in.

It's a hard one b/c I was told not to force myself to eat. Later on my nut did say to at least eat a piece of cheese when I'm not hungry. She expressed concern with the meal skipping.

I'm struggling to get enough calories in. Mr Dr wants me to get 1000 a day but I'm finding I can do 600. So I'm starting to think trying to eat every 3-4 hours small meals and see if I can get it in. Hardest is I just don't feel hungry so it makes it hard.
