Hey, do you all eat even if your not hunrgy? I go till my stomach is growling, and I'm physically hungry. But if I'm trying to increase protein for muscle, should I eat even if not hungry? Or just wait till I'm truely hungry?

    I think that depends on how many calories you are taking in and what your exercise level is.

    I work out daily and my diet is at about 1200 calories, net, so I do eat a snack if I'm low on calories and I know I have a work out later.

    Funny! Wish I had that problem. I'm at the boredom age, so it seems like I'm always hungry .... and I am great at eating "just because I can".
