Afternoon Binge Eating

tishonamarie

I'm having a problem with coming home from school (I'm a teacher) and wanting to binge eat. I go to a Zumba class at 7 and don't want a big meal, but I always feel like I'm so hungry. What do you all suggest I eat in the afternoon to keep me feeling fuller? Or what do you eat between lunch and dinner?

I go with it, and plan to eat most of my calories in the early afternoon.

try the light english muffin and almond or peanut butter... its just enough and less than 300 calories

I'm a teacher too and seriously after eating (lunch?) at 9:30am and then coming home at 3, I'm STARVING! I usually have another meal at that point and just lesson my calories allotted for all of my other meals!

scatter food between periods. when i was teaching and losing at the same time, i would eat my sandwich at lunch, my fruit and my veggies between each period, and then when i came home, i'd have three big glasses of water, figure out if i was hungry, then eat a Greek yogurt with cinnamon. i think it's all about tricking your mind. spend that time decompressing or grading!

Are you eating multiple meals a day?

What time do you eat lunch & dinner? I'm assuming Zumba is 7-8PM. I Why not just eat dinner (even a light dinner) earlier since you're obviously hungry then.
