Going over your carbs to curb hunger vs. being hungry?

[MoonLiz]

I just got home after a long day, and I'm over my carbs because I stopped for a snack (cheese and hardboiled eggs) to curb my hunger this afternoon.

So now I'm home, and I'm hungry, but I'm already over my carbs (22 for the day, so not too bad).

Drinking water is fine and dandy, but I'm hungry.

Moon, You absolutely don't want to be hungry Have some protein,
Also are you subtracting the fiber.?? That looks like a lot of carbs for induction

I think I might have some tuna around here.

Yes, I'm subtracting fiber. I'm tracking using fitday and subtracting accordingly.

Put some mayo in that tuna. Excess protein will turn to glucose. Extra fat with your protein will fill you up and keep you full longer. As long as it is healthy carbs, going over a couple won't hurt you any.

If you are hungry, eat.
never be hungry on this plan.
as Dr A said, when in doubt, eat.

Post your menu, including the amounts of the foods and beverages you have had.
