What Causes Appetite Loss?

I m an 18 year old boy who is 6 feet tall and weighs about 190 pounds. I am a football player so I have a good physique. My problem is that for the past 2.5 weeks I have experienced a severe loss of appetite. Some days I will only eat a slice of pizza and be fine and some days I can t eat at all. I try to but I m just not hungry and if I try and eat a big meal I only eat about 1/4 of it. I don t know what is wrong with me. Also, I ve been really tired more often.
