    Check to feeling out of control when eating. I've had it all my life. It's not that I'm hungry. It's more that I crave/feel not properly full. I'm fine with not eating all day, but when I do begin to eat, the crave monster appears. I used to confuse this with hunger.

    I know I have metabolic issues, but for some of us, if we've exhausted medical help, we have to learn to live with it. Cardio helps me with it. We're all different. If I begin to feel out of control, I do some running. I never crave after running. No idea why. I've found what works for me, so possibly you need to find strategies that work for you.

    Just wondering if the 'hunger' you feel could actually be pain from reflux or some other kind of GI distress? That could create a gnawing/burning feeling very much like hunger.

    Another thing i do is reduce total meals. I find 3 large meals is my sweet spot as opposed to more.

    I donno. It's like today. I had a slice of Ezekiel bread with peanutbutter and banana. I was still hungry so I had chicken breast and a slice of bacon. Then I was still hungry so I had two bowls of whole grain cereal. And this was all in the span of an hour. And I still feel hungry.

    That's me before my period.

    maybe. I am always gassy and bloated. But that could do with how I'm eating way too much.
