Hi everyone, does anyone have issues with not eating until you're absolutely starving. That's my issues. I don't feel hungry and then I don't eat. By the time I am hungry I'm starving and I end up overeating.
Does anyone else have this issue? Any tips on how to overcome this?

    I've had a similar issue on and off, usually when I go a long time with screwy eating habits. I found it tapered off when I got myself into a habit of eating more or less at the same times every day.

    My advice is to just eat at regular meal times.

    I don't always 'feel' hungry, but that doesn't mean I don't need to eat.

    I get like that too.. I forget to eat or just don't want to eat until I get super hungry. Just make yourself eat before you get to that state. Sometimes you have to make yourself.

    The problem is usually that you're not registering the more subtle signs as "hunger." You just need practice recognizing when you're at an earlier stage of being hungry. The hunger scale outlines this very well: tzi2baxcm5m2.png
