I am soooo hungry today

[Terry]

Boy. I wasnt all that hungry this morning when we went to breakfast and didnt even eat half of what I got. Scrambled eggs w/ bacon (6AM)

Snacky hungry about 10 so I had a few slices of cheese.

1:00 I had about 8 oz of steak and 1/2 cup fried mushrooms with it.

3:00..... I had 4 oz cream cheese w/ splenda figuring the high fat and the amount would settle me and kill the hunger going on.

I have since been in the kitchen EVERY time I turn around, get nothing and leave. I am afraid that if I get into something there will be no end to my chowing down this evening.

Drinking water.

I know its not a lot of food, and I can definately fit some veggies in there but when I look in the fridge, nothing interests me. I could easily eat the popcorn shrimp in the freezer because they keep callig me. My poor freezer door is not going to take another slam. <yikes>

Arggggghhhhhhhh This is the first time since re-inducting that I am scouring the place and so darned hungry I could eat a cow AND a pig.

Hate it!

I just may go to bed and hope it is gone before I wake up tomorrow morning, but Im not sure that my stomach will shut up long enough for me to get to sleep!

Must be something in the air today then..cuz....I've been sooooooo snacky all day long. Been like Terry ...everytime I turn around there I was rooting around in the kitchen for a snack.And swearing like lots2lose that I willlllllll have to give up cream. Thought I'd make a box of sugarfree pudding...I know...not the greatest since it doesn't use splenda....but it was butterscotch ....and it was calling me Soooo thinking I will eat just part of it...a dab yanno...just to squelch the calling. So I made it. One cup cream and one cup water. And then I put it all in a bowl..put it in the fridge...and allowed myself to eat the leftovers in the mixing bowl. Shoooooot...every time I went to the kitchen I think I took just one....or two lil bites outta that danged bowl in the fridge. It's half gone now.

I had my meals today and my water...well brunch as I canned pickles this morning and it got late before I got a change to eat.

But snacky was THE word today. Sure hoping tommorrow is better for us all.

Re: I am soooo hungry today

Maybe you need the extra food today! Another thought is... have you gotten your exercise in?

Some days lately when I've been extra hungry, I eat a small amount, drink a glass of water and then get a decent workout or walk in. Most days that knocks my appetite way down.

Re: I am soooo hungry today

If you're hungry...then eat!

Just make sure it's "legal" food.
I too usually dropped weight after a day of being really hungry.

Also you might want to review your menu and see if you ate a "trigger" food. For me things like oranges, bread, rice can really trigger cravings.

Re: I am soooo hungry today

Yes I had a bad day yesterday too, after over 50 some days of not cheating....Gaaaaaa! I had some chinese food and a handful of macaroons! I am so mad at myself but i am not making excuses, I knew what I was doing. Hub and I had always maintained a "me" meal once a month previously on our woe, we still lost weight but I found myself thinking about what i would eat for that one meal for a whole month, so I kind of dropped the idea this final go around. I don't know what made me decide I deserved such a crap meal after so long, and whether TOM had a hand in in (cause he decided to drop in yesterday) but I did it, I regret it, and immediatly went out and drank a whole whack of water and went for a brisk 1 hour walk. Today I am up 2 lbs but TOM does that too so I am going to beat myself up for awhile over this (it didn't even taste good, I hated it and ate very little as a result) and let you all dummy slap me, but I am already back on track.

Bad me! Bad Bad me!

Now back to our regularily scheduled program

Re: I am soooo hungry today

Babe, I can't beat you, because I ditched the whips and chains awhile back, and I can't even find a fly swatter around here. <grin>

So, you had some chinese food and macaroons. Macaroons, btw, have VERY little flour and are mostly coconut, which is high in fat, so if ya gotta cheat, that would be the least awful way. And as for chinese food, I hope you really enjoyed it. Enough for me. Because I miss that!!!!! So I will concentrate on feeling satisfied 'cause YOU ate it!

FIFTY days cheat free? And THIS is all you did? I'm proud of you. You just keep plugging along......and wait until you measure tomorrow! I'll bet you dropped some major inches. No, go work out and drink a TON of water today!
