I'm hungry all the time

2 eggs AND shredded wheat is NOT a lot of food.

it really is. Esp since you don't know how big the bowl is

which I'm gonna go out on a limb by his other food and guess that it's a small amount

again we are both GUESSING b/c his post was non specific. I hope he will open his diary so we can see what he's been up to since december and why his two months are so arduous.

well I have pics in my profile. Im about 5'10 and thatd be a lot of food for me.

try the fitness frog mentioned above. At 5'10" you should be able to lose weight on way more than 1200 cals.

:flowerforyou:

but that's not 1200 calories. the two bowls of shredded wheat could be 1200 alone

The bolded section was intended for you. :flowerforyou:

True. He could be using a big mixing bowl and pouring four boxes of cereal in each one. Yup. That's where everyone but you went wrong.

Good catch :flowerforyou:

It really isn't. Even if I don't know how big the bowl is.

I would assume that it is somewhere in the vicinity of an average-sized bowl. So even with two cups of shredded wheat - still not a LOT of food.

Unless we're talking about this kind of bowl:



But I kind of doubt it.

I am SO craving shredded wheat now! How much milk for that sjohnny? One carton or two? This sounds like a good recipe!

Even if he's way underestimating a portion of cereal (probable) it still doesn't sound like much food to me. But it's all guesswork until OP answers.

Probably a couple of gallons would do.

1 cup of dry shredded wheat is 167 calories. Plus a cup of 2% milk takes it to 300- and do you really think anyone only eats 1 cup per serving? better double that and there you have 1200 calories minus the eggs and sandwich and how many pieces of fruit??.

math, people. use it

I think you're adding an extra zero to your projected calorie intake there...

No way in frackin' hell a couple bowls of cereal is 1200 calories...300...500 tops.

300*2 = 1200?

math eh?

Math iz hard... :laugh:

SoDamnHungry

that's a lot of food. 2 eggs AND shredded wheat? I would split those meals up into a meal plus snacks- and eat more protein

lunch is a sandwich a salad and a piece of fruit? that's a meal and a snack to me

and skip that last bowl of shredded wheat

youre probably hungry because youre used to eating a lot and often

Unless OP is eating two cups of shredded wheat at every meal, that's not a large amount of food.

I personally don't count any of the calories in say, spinach and carrots. Eat all you want of some things, I say, and it seems to work. But even so, I'd still be hungry with as much "bread" as your eating. Things like shredded wheat make me hungry pretty fast (not so for everyone). I would limit the bread-type carbs and grab some nuts instead. More proteins and good oils and you'll feel better. And way lots of green stuff and carrots and such. I've started putting spinach or kale (frozen ones easy) into about everything I cook--even meatloaf and chili are better with kale. Cornbread is better with spinach. I feel best when my eating has lots of veggies and I lift. Or any real work--like digging and building. Sometimes I really struggle with hunger, esp after a period of eating badly like the holidays, but after I stick with it a bit, I'm better.

Ummm so *you* know how big the bowl is as you seem awfully sure it is a lot of food. How big is the bowl then?

OP: As this seems to be a fiercely debated fact. Exactly how many shredded wheats are you eating and how much milk do you use, and what kind of milk

and you know how big it is?

I am going to assume it is an average size bowl, hence not that much food…

Unless OP is eating shredded wheat out of pasta sized serving bowl???

With the shredded wheat, whole wheat bread, fruit & more shredded wheat you might be eating too many carbs which spikes your blood sugar making you hungry almost right away.

You could try switching the bread & fruit for a high fat - low carb item. The fat will keep you fuller longer.

I like tuna packets, hard boiled eggs, cheese stick, pepperoni slices, avovado, lunch meat & cheese roll ups...

You could also try a fiber supplement. I like taking 2-3 665mg Glucomannan AKA "Konjac". It's all natural & really fills you up inbetween meals. It's only $5-10 at Target/Wal-Mart.

Hope that helps!!

yeaaaa,I am not seeing any carbs in OP's breakdown except some cereal….I eat carbs and am not immediately hungry after eating them...
