I was taking 75mg of Effexor XR and that combined with Wellbutrin, I didn't have an appetite either. For me, this is good, because I tend to over eat. If you are worried, you should see if your doctor can change you to something else.
Both Wellbutrin and Effexor tend to lessen the appetite.

I would say that the effects wear off in time - give it a couple more weeks. I also lost my appetite, but it came back. I understand about the nausea, I got that too, but it does go away. Its awful if you have to ride buses!
Good luck, and take care!

I just didn't stay on it long enough to notice a change in my appetite. Fondly, Phillipa
