As you get older do you notice your body and appetite changing?

Last night for dinner I had a piece of meatloaf, some mashed potatoes and a few carrots. Today I am still so full that I couldn't even think about breakfast and I am not sure if I will even have lunch. 😢 When I was younger I would have had seconds last night and been looking for breakfast this morning.

Metabolism slows down with age...got to jump start it!

@SW-User Not necessarily. When my dad was young, he was always too skinny despite eating lots of food. Everyone told him "wait till you get older." Now he's 60, and not a thing has changed. He's 5'11" and weighs maybe 130 pounds on a good day, and dude eats as much food as two grown men.

When he went to his high school reunion, his friends were marveling at the fact that he actually [i]lost[/i] weight after high school because he stopped drinking alcohol.

@BlueMetalChick of course there are always exceptions.
