I often have a temporary loss of appetite that results from grief. To "prime the pump" so to speak, I rely on a childhood favorite which is tapioca pudding. My mother would make it for me when I was small and whenever I was ill. She would always add a drop of food coloring to cheer me up. Other family members rely on "dippy toast" which is a soft boiled egg over small pieces of lightly toasted bread. I hope you can find a comforting pump primer to kick start your appetite. It sometimes seems so hard to even think about food when one's heart is breaking; however, food can nourish your soul as well as your body. Hoping you will feel in a better place soon.
