Help I am hungry!!

Today I feel out of control I am sooo hungry!! I had a breakfast bar, coffee and yogurt and just feel famished I have not felt this way for a long time!! Why can't I shake these hunger pains I am drinking plenty of fluids. I have gained 3 lbs in the last 2 days what's going on with my body!!! I am so afraid of gaining all this back!!!

Hi Michelle, well I'm no expert that's for sure, but if I were you I would bump up the protein. I have the nectar protein and I have it about 4 times a day. Believe me, when you drink a big jug of that stuff it really does help with the hunger. Remember, and again, no expert here, but try to distinguish between head hunger and stomach hunger. That's a problem for me, so I know it's real!! good luck, and don't give yourself negative vibes -- sometimes that's our worse enemy. And be sure and eat enough!! And how much protein did the breakfast bar have in it?? love donna

Michelle, Is it that time of the month? I'm always SO much more hungrier the week before and the week of my cycle. This week, I decided I'd had enough of being hungry and cut out most carbs and snacking and upped my protein WAY up, to about 120 gms a day and I'm not hungry, feeling the urge to snack or craving carbs.

Paula. I did the same thing. I have upped protein and I am watching my intake. I think this is the month we start to relize we need to make healthier choices if we want to stay on track. I have made my snacks beef jerky as well. I Got those crackers out of the way. Take Care Barb

Barb, now what kind of beef jerky are you taking? I seem to remember you talking about, and thought I would make a note of it, but didn't. I am getting senile!! thanks donna p.s. Hope today is a better day for you honey. I worried about you yesterday. Hang in there!!
