Often when I'm hungry, I can feel it... but if I go longer without eating, the hunger pains seem to go away, and then I don't feel hungry.

I feel full when im starving :D

Yeah I know what you mean!

tottally normal ive gone days forgetting to eat

It depends. If I'm distracted and busy doing things, than I often don't feel hungry. But I don't think it's normal to feel like that all the time.

For me I get so hungry when I get hungry. I need to eat right then. If I don't then I get dizzy and I feel sick. But if I wait too long to eat then I can't eat anymore. Food looks and tastes gross.

i felt like this before. but my mom would bug me until i ate. then once i started eating, i felt really hungry. sounds weird but...

You get numb to the hunger. I cut weight for wrestling and that always happens to me.

I hardly ever feel hungry.I mean if I was like dying of hunger im pretty sure I would feel hungry.

my mind kind of goes numb to everything when i havent eaten past the hunger pangs. i may not feel hungry but its impossible to focus well.

its minor stress usually for me

Stress can get you to not eat. I had it for about a week, but I got over it with some antacid. While I had it I felt like shit in every way, but only during the day the last 3 days for some odd reason. Before I would occasionally get numb to hunger then consume like a black hole the likes of which no astronomer has ever seen. My friends thought it was amazing that I could eat 2 footlong coneys if I didn't eat since breakfast.

Sorry meant to say" during the day the with the exception of the night of the last 3".

Yeah whenever I would smoke weed, I would be so hungry/high I wouldn't notice it
