The German word would be exactly that but in German and without space.

Appetitlosigkeit is in the dictionary unlike those other suggestions. But it just means not having an appetite. If the problem is making a decision you could talk about Entscheidungsparalyse bedingte Nahrungsaufnahmeverweigerung (rejecting food consumption because of decision paralysis).

Could be "Heißhunger"... A deep carving for something or a specific meal mostly not available at the moment...

Nah we just stole "Gusto" (appetite) Also "Gusta" you can be hungry but not have an appetite for anything. And of course you can be full but then the desert arrives, triggering your Gusta

We have a word for the latter tough: Nachtischmagen (literally dessert stomach). It doesn't matter how full you are, you always have room for dessert.
