I started new meds and I'm starving!

Well, really not starving, but feel like I am. This is awful :( Hopefully, this will pass soon. For now, I'll eat at maintenance *sigh*

    Start cooking your food fresh. you can count calories better. And get filled up. Chicken breast skinned pan cooked with Pam.

    Frozen dinners never fill you me up
    FTFY

    I've never been on meds that increased my appetite, but I feel for you. It sucks because you know what's causing it but you can't stop taking them. :/

    I can't see your diary, but try eating 5-6 six times a day and really work to balance protein, carbs, and fat at each sitting.

    Thanks everyone! The hungry-as-a-horse feeling has subsided *whew* Just that one terrible day really makes me empathize with the individuals that struggle with hunger pangs everyday.
