Why this Celiac is trying Soylent -- Reason #4 Weird appetite issues

I'm not sure how or why, but I have nearly 0 appetite. (Is that normal for Celiacs?) I can't remember the last time I was hungry.

At least I haven't been hungry in a way that my brain would identify as "Hey chick, you're hungry."

My version of hunger sounds like this:

My brain sends out the signal, "Do something or you're gonna crash."

But it doesn't send out the tummy growl or anything that even resembles hunger.

The last time my stomach growled, my husband asked, "Are you hungry?"

I was baffled. "Uh, no?"

I'm not trying to be a rebel, not trying to be difficult. It's just a weird thing that I don't experience hunger. It also makes it particularly difficult to remember to eat.

Thus, Soylent. It's a lot easier to consume something so incredibly un-food-like when un-hungry.
