Stopped contraceptive pill

About 10 days ago and I've found myself so hungry since! Literally clock watching for lunch time and dinner time. Even having to have a snack a few hours after dinner as my tummy is literally rumbling! My meals are varied but good amounts of protein and carbs etc. Any one else gone through something similar?

No. I haven't noticed any changes in appetite going from off the pill, to on, to back off as of over a month ago.

Perhaps your hormone levels are fluctuating a bit and that is causing you to be hungry. It's just a guess. However, if you do want to snack, I'd just focus on finding good, filling snacks, with fiber and protein. Apple slices dipped in some peanut butter, celery boats, half a sandwich with chicken or tuna salad... there's lots of great and filling snack options! Protein bars are great, too (there are recipes to make your own too!). Hope things go well for you.
