I Am Hungry

I am having a hungry day.  I'm talking stomach growling hungry not a craving for a specific off limits food.  I have battled it back all day.  I'm weighing my food so I know I'm getting the proper amount.  I am chugging water like mad and yet my stomach growls.

Typically, the weight loss battle for me is largely in the mind, waging those mental wars about justifiying this or that off plan food.  Now, I'm having to do battle with my body.  I know it has enough food.  What is up with the starvation act it is giving me now?

  1. Ugh, hungry days are the WORST! Have you possibly had more activity over the last few days and your body is wanting to make up for that now? I think that was me yesterday. Regardless, I know it's frustrating because it's hard to ignore true hunger, and I'm not sure that you even should ignore true hunger. The day is at closing! :)

  2. 1. You are loosing weight today, and it will show on the scale tomorrow.

    2. You are hungry (true hunger) and need to eat more protein or healthy fat?

    3. It's not hunger????

    Good luck! It's tough to figure out sometimes.

    1. Karen,
      I really thought is was number 1 on your list and fully expected a big drop this morning when I weighed. I did not.

      I do believe it was true hunger, and wondered if I needed to up the protein but toughed it out until weighing this morning. Thinking I would increase the protein today, but today, I've been back to 'normal' whatever that is!

  4. Hungry days are the worst, until I started looking at them as a good thing. If iam hungry then it means my body is losing the weight. Of course, only if i am eating enough can I tell myself that!

  5. When I feel I am eating more than I should, I just start visiting gym more often. After tough workout I never want to eat. In order to have enough energy for regular workouts I am taking Super Army formula by Military Grade. It gives me tone and strength like nothing else. I am able to workout as much as I want and keep great shape.
