Re: Hunger
You probably need to increase your intake of calories. Think about it this way if you were eating 1500 calories per day and then started to work out and burned enough calories to get yourself down to the 1200 area, your body is going to need more fuel. There seems to be consistent agreement that no adult should be bellow the 1200 range, even if they are only 110 pounds.
Too many people don't end up losing weight when they start to exercise because their daily calories intakes fall so low that their bodies basically go into starvation mode.
Make sure you are eating enough to make up for the calories that you are burning.
