Here are my meals for today...any suggestions? and is > this normal for week 5? and what could be causing this? it's not > PMS. My appetite really varies, but I have noticed since I've been getting my fats in and my 2 servings of veggies plus a salad, my appetite has decreased. You could possibly go for longer laster carbs like oatmeal, beans, lentils etc. on the days you are hungry, but your menu looks pretty good as is.

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I deal with this even now in the 2nd week of phase 3 too but the first week I started looking into the calories of everything i was eating & noticed I was not eating enough. I was hungry & I was gaining...(2 steak days in 1st week) & couldn't figure out how that was possible because I eat more now then i did before i started the diet. Make sure your eating at least 1500 calories & then evaluate what you can do different if it's too high. Or it's possible you need higher daily cal intake they say 1500-1700 (but 1500 is minimum for everyone) > > Ok so I just started phase 3 yesterday and feel like Im always hungry. I hate it because I dont want to eat so much that I gain weight. This is very frustrating! Has anyone else felt like this? I would love any helpful tips! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 i would eat pretty low carb for now and add one starch at a time. From: hotpotato_10 <hotpotato_10@...>Subject: Re: Hungry Date: Sunday, May 24, 2009, 4:28 PM How exactly do I go about counting my calories??? I dont know how many calories an apple has. Or how many calories worth of protein or vegetables I eat. Or how many calories worth of almonds I eat. Is it so terrible that I dont know how to count calories??? I need help!!! > >> > Ok so I just started phase 3 yesterday and feel like Im always hungry. I hate it because I dont want to eat so much that I gain weight. This is very frustrating!

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 This is my second day and I am very hungry. So I had about 4 cups of lettuce, a huge bowl with vinegar sweetened with stevia I had it with my breadstick. I will wait another hour then have my eggs. I am having an apple later, I am finding I do better if I spread my food out I am fine in the morning. The thing that has kept me today is looking in the mirror, also I was 4# lighter this morning.
