Starting to get hungry!!!!
 

I am in week 2 of P1 and starting to get hungry. Nothing has changed in my routine or what I eat. Not having any cravings, I am just hungry.
Any suggestions y'all beautiful chicks????

Is it close to TOM? I often get much hungrier around that time (which has been this week). I just eat extra veggies and drink more water to get me past it and the extra hunger doesn't hang around long.

Its post TOM. Ended wednesday. Could that be it????

Wenchy, I usually drink a large glass of water first. Sometimes thirst masquerades as hunger. If I'm still feeling hungry, I have some veggies and protein--homemade 3 Bean salad is ideal, but you could try some celery and laughing cow, etc. Usually, if I'm not truly hungry, veggies don't sound good to me, but if I am, I'll be thrilled to have them. It's like a little test. ;)

Dr. A does say that if you are hungry, eat. But do keep it to veggies (which fill you up) and a bit of protein (which keeps you full longer).

Thanks Laurie. I was starting to worry that I was going to have to double what I eat to keep from being hungry. :D

Wendy, black beans in my salads have really helped me. For some reason it keeps me full much much longer.

Good luck!

I usually eat a salad when I get hunry with vingar only as dressing (I don't like oil). By the time I prepare it all, I am no longer hungry ;)

Honestly, water fills me as does Crystal Lite. Try that first. I always have celery or peppers (in pretty colors) in baggies in the fridge to grab and eat. I've also started adding an extra veggie to my main entree (so I have chicken with spinach and cauliflower with a salad).

Very filling (not to mention FIBEROUS :lol: )
