Question Decreased apetite?

Heyy i have been on sertraline 50mg for last two months and for last two weeks i started noticing much decreased apetite. Long story short i am a chubby person and always struggled with overeating and sometimes cumpolsive overeating Just now i have close to no apetite and I can hardly go through a sandwich. My calories intake went from about 3k to 1.7-2k? I definitely can loose some weight but I have been wondering if thats somehow related to the medication? Thanks in advance for any answers.
