Forgetting to Eat

Does anyone else have this problem? I'm eight months out and don't remember to eat. I'm never hungry so it just doesn't cross my mind. My husband has started asking me what I ate today because he knows I forget. This is a bad habit I need to break. I still drink my protein and take my vitamins though. I just get busy doing things and forget about eating. I never in a million years would have thought I would have this problem. Tina

Me too TIna. I have to work on it! Patricia

I'm glad it's not just me. My husband gets mad at me and says I'm doing it to lose more weight and I'm not. I just don't get hungry so I don't remember to eat. And now that I have so much energy I'm always on the go and always doing something and I just forget. I finally remember when I get light headed. The only time I seem to get hungry is around TTOTM. And then it seems like I'm always hungry.

Hey Tina!!! I don't forget to eat unless I am busy. Lately that has not been the case, but I have had days when I knew it was time to eat, but was busy, so didn't. I do get plenty of fluids and protein drinks in tho. I started keeping a protein bar in my purse, just in case I am out and realize its time to eat, or that I have not eaten, that way I have something that I can eat. Do you have a watch with an alarm on it? Maybe you could set it so it goes off every 5 hours or so, to remind you to eat. Good to see you back, btw, How was the reunion?

I keep protien bars too but I still forget them. I thought about doing that with a watch, I'll look at walmart today for one with a timer on it. The reunion was nice thanks for asking. Tin

Tina, Me too when I am doing things around the house or i am at work I forget to eat. I have to make myself eat sometimes. then I go through phases where I feel like I can eat all day long but I know it is more in my head. I never really feel hungry since I have had surgery. i still drink my protein shakes for breakfast along with my vitamins. I feel like if I eat to much my tummy gets bloated and I feel bad for a while. oh i wanted to see if you can change my pic on the posts for me I don't know how to do it. Love ya, Chrissy

What picture do you want on it?

That's as clear as I could get the picture, I don't have a good editing program. I will try another one and see if I can get it clearer for you.

Tina, That one you have is ok thank you Chrissy

Hey Tina, I am right there with you girl....I usually will grab a piece of toast with slice of turkey for breakfast and eat that on my way to work. I am always being reminded that I need to go to lunch, I will usually come home and get something. The worst time for me is at night. I think about dinner so late. My husband and kids are usually gone in the evening so I just dont' think about it. If the kids are home I will cook for them but I seem to get busy doing something an I never eat. I hate to eat late in the evening so this is something I need to get in the habit of doing. The weekends are real bad for me. I always have my water bottle I carry it from room to room so I do get my fluids but gosh the other stuff is so hard. Jodi
