Re: Why am I so ^$*&&^ HUNGRY ALL THE TIME
Are you getting enough protein in your diet? Are you staying away from white breads and sticking with whole grain?
Re: Why am I so ^$*&&^ HUNGRY ALL THE TIME
I asked the same question a few weeks ago..I would eat cereal or something and tehn a few hours later I would be starving.then someone suggested egg white omelettes.. I eat those now with mushrooms or whatever and a few slices of canadian bacon( low fat.low or no carbs)..and I am full until lunch. Its great! Water fills me up in teh middle. have you tried that? I swear by these omelettes.

I think I need to stay away from 'white' foods.. i think that is my problem...

Although people think fat is bad, sometimes when you are not getting enough, you feel like you're hungry, so make sure you're not eating FF all the time. Try a bagel with 2 tbsp. peanut butter. It might help fill you up. I think we have this misconception about breads and grainy food, thinking that they are bulky and will fill us up, but protein and fats are what really do it.

What everyone said is true. It takes your body longer to break down fats and protein than it does to break down carbs, so therefore protein keeps you satisfied longer. What works really well for me is turkey with Alpine Lace on whole wheat bread with lettuce and tomato. I'll eat half the sandwich at lunchtime with an apple and save the rest for a snack later. Tuna salad is also good, egg salad, things like that. The combo of protein, fats, and complex carbs will do the trick.
