I normally don't, but yesterday I was VERY mean to my boyfriend. So mean that he was asking me if I still wanted to be his girlfriend. I got better after I had some food in me, but it doesn't excuse a single thing that I said.

Negative. I tend to look at it more along the lines of I'm less irritable when I am not hungry. :D

Strangely enough I've noticed this when I'm eating a lot of high carb high sugar foods, so I suspect its related to my blood sugar going up and down up and down, with the dowm swings being the irritable time.

I've noticed when I make a point to pair a protien with anything carb or sugar, I don't have this issue. I get hungry, but its not this urgent, irritable must eat now feeling.

My DH on the other hand, my goodness....he gets so mean when he doesn't eat. Even if he doesn't eat healthy (ice cream...add some walnuts) he can still throw some protien in there, but he doesn't. He also get so mean when he can't over eat, Ironical this was posted when it was. Tonight we have no ice cream in the house, and he has a huge bowl or two every night. Normally he just goes out an buys some, but he is trying to not snack at night. On the good side, he has not had ice cream tonight, on the bad side, he has been a miserable and mean person since about 6pm...he's not even tolerable to be around. ugh......

Too bad that I can go from "not hungry" to "way too hungry" within about 20 minutes. And then if I don't have the specific food around that I want to eat and I have to make it / wait for it ... it's pretty bad.

Alizarin, this is me.
