Is it because I started lifting weights again this week after not lifting for almost two months?

Don't quote me, but it sounds legitamate, your expending more energy so your body is going to want more fuel. Could be something else though. One thing's for sure, if you don't have an adequate diet, your workout's going to be lacking.

Heavy lifting definitely boosts your appetite....your body is expending extra calories during workouts and requires more calories afterward to repair muscles...
