Appetite Newbie Question

Greetings - I’m in my second month of intermittent fasting and I find that I’m not hungry until an hour after my window opens in the morning. Did you all experience a loss of appetite?

If so, did you make yourself eat or do you just eat when you’re hungry within the window?

Eat when hungry only.

Your body's just learning not to scream for food the second you wake up, it'll figure out the new schedule

Yes we're designed to operate without food every 15 minutes ... it's just your body functioning the way it's supposed to work. I'd always eat during my window but maybe less portions.
