What Causes Appetite Loss?

I got over a cold a few days ago but ever since (so for the past few days) I've experienced an almost complete loss of appetite - I don't feel hungry and I have to even force myself to eat because my body just doesn't seem to want food. I've been fatigued and sleeping poorly as well.
