Why do I feel hungry if I have had enough to eat? I ate a banana for a snack and drank some water and I had lunch less than an 1 1/2 ago. What is going on?

    nothing's going on :) go drink some water and have a snack in about half an hour. :D We're actually supposed to be hungry every couple hours so we give ourselves more fuel. Unfortunately, we're not used to that, because we are accustomed to way over eating. Small meals, several times a day. :D

    what did you eat for lunch? If you had too many "bad" carbs they are probably done pretending to make you full. Try eating a lil bit of protein like nuts or an egg at lunch, might help to keep you full longer. I had this same issue for a very long time while counting cals and eating low fat. Hope that helps :flowerforyou:

    True DAT! Last night I was ravenous! I ate an apple with 1 tsp almond buitter (PB is great too, but not quite as healthy). You know what? It was enough, but in the past i would have scarfed down a huge bag of chips instead:sad:

    I am making much better choices now, thankfully. And yes, frequent snacks is a good thing. I find I lose faster when I am not depriving myself...strange but true :noway:

    apples ALWAYS make me hungrier than i was before i ate it. Even when I was a kid and not a tubby. I dont know why they do that, but they do.
