Today i got up early in the morning at about 6 PM and went to buy the food in the market . I cooked breakfast for my baby and for ourselves. I washed , cut and cooked a lot later on for the dinner. It's a really hot day and i sweat heavily. After i finish all these things i lose my appetite at once . Do you have such experience ? Please share with us .

No, I have never had the experience in my life. I love cooking. Every time after cooking I feel very proud of the food I cooked and enjoy it very much. I suppose you just get tired this morning. As you said you went to shopping and cooked for your family including a baby. I think it’s not a easy job to do so much things in one morning. I always tell myself not getting too tired. So I separate shopping and cooking times. Whenever I do these two things I’m not in a hurry.

it would be too much to shop every day and cook as well as.

We just cann't separate shopping and cooking . We go to the market every day to buy meat , fish and vegetables . We don't really buy food at one time and put them in refrigerator. I think you must be a good cook so that you will keep a good appetite every time.

In the summer this happens a lot to me. Last week I made a lovely meal for my family, everybody came to table starving, I just sat there looking at all the lovely food that I spent a good hour or so preparing and I couldn't. My boys didn't complain, they just thought all the more for them!!

If the family love to eat what i cook i would be happy no matter whether i lose appetite or not.

Yeah, I don't mind if they eat everything but a bit of sympathy would be nice. I have four kids and my husband to cook for so it is a lot. Maybe if they had "Never mind Mom, have a rest we will clean up!" but no such luck!

Yes, most of the time I'd lose an appetite if I am cooking. Maybe because I'd done all the testing and I know already what I am cooking, so it seems my fascination on the food I cook, no matter how tasty it is, seemed lost, but I still have to eat to compensate my efforts.lol!

I often find that if it is a hot day and i have been cooking that i will lose my appetite, or if i have been cooking for ages, i get really hungry when the food is cooking but by the time that the food is ready i seem to have lost it and i am no longer hungry.
