Today I was hungry all freaking day!! The scale also jumped up 2 lbs this morning after being really good all weekend (I even hiked 5 miles and lifted weights yesterday). I have also been kinda emotional lately. I think TOM is coming...... super.
I have a "hungry" day the day after I do my weights session...without fail
The day following weights I could just eat all day long - its really annoying. I have learnt to drink more water and if it still doesn't go away then I have a piece of fruit. But yep - I certainly do get those days!
Yeah those days suck. In fact it's usually a day like that which completely ruins my motivation. Don't be like me. Keep your head up and think that tomorrow will be better. And weight always fluctuates...don't let that get you down.
When my TOM comes it's like all rules and laws of physics go out the window!
I'm exhausted, bloated and try not to even glance at the scale until 3 or 4 days after it's started just so I don't get myself down over an inevitable jump up on the scale.
Sometimes I just get very hungry, even after eating a full meal. I try to eat more healthy stuff, because I don't really believe in white-knuckling your way through real hunger. I wouldn't put anyone I love through that, so why would I do it to myself? I just don't use it as an excuse to eat junk or to eat fast so I get stuffed before my brain has a chance to signal satiety.
I always get ravenous the couple of days before my period. I always retain a ton of water then, too. And after i do a hard work out, I'll sometimes retain some water. The funny thing is, I got my period late last night, and today was like my appetite just completely went away. I really like eating grapes when i'm hungry. for some reason they really full me up. You've done so well so far, you can get through this no problem.
ella I swear we are on the same weight loss path! Monday was awful for me.. I ate so much chocolate it is not even funny. And I am soo friggin hungry right now. I don't have TOM but the scale has not been my friend! I did so well over the weekend and was disappointed to see the numbers go up from thur to mon morning. And the scale went up again today!
What gives? I just want a big candy bar and a half gallon of ice cream! Help!
Apples make me more hungry too! I thought I was the only one. I have to pair it with cheese or nut butter for it to fill me up.
When i'm having a hungry day I try to get something that takes a while to eat, that way by the time I'm done, I feel pretty full. Grapes, chopped raw veggies, dry cereal, pretty much anything I eat with my hands that is crunchy fills me up.
I'll randomly have days like that, and today was one of those days... Thankfully so far I haven't really eaten anything bad since I'm at work and there isn't anything here... I think I had an extra few crackers...
i just have snacky snacky days, i dont want meals, i just want the constant feeling of my arm picking up food and putting it into my mouth. dont care what i eat either, in fact today i ate half my calories in carrots alone! thats a lot of carrots.
Yes I've had 3 days like that and feel utterly horrible. I feel like I lose all control during TOM. I ate 3200 calories two days ago, 2300 yesterday, and probably close to another 3000 today. God, It's like I set myself up for failure or something. I've fallen off the wagon and am having trouble getting back on
Hungry Day
