Yes and No.
Yes, exercise may increase your appetite to begin with but this is perfectly natural – after all, you are burning a lot more calories.
However, as your body adjusts you should experience a decrease in appetite.
Research shows that exercise actually lowers appetite for up to several hours afterwards.
In addition, exercise creates a desire for carbohydrates (to replace lost energy) rather than fatty foods.
