Posts: 142
I feel like I'm hungry ALL THE TIME, even when I know I'm not. I get hunger like pains in my stomach.... So I eat =( Ive tried gum, mints, sugar free jolly ranchers, and butt loads of water. Any one else with this problem? If so, how do you handle it? Any suggestions or tips will be greatly appreciate
***edit***
Many people has said to make my diary public, but I can't. It keeps asking for a code, Ive reported this problem to MFP and hopefully they will be able to fix it soon.

Make your dairy public so we can see what you are eating.0

I have the same problem and have yet to figure out how to fix it..... Would love the answer tho! I do a lot of weight lifting and cardio per day and I don't eat back my calories......0

Hmm, depends what you are eating thats not making you full. Maybe fill up on some protein?0

Yeah make the diary public. Also gum is no good for hunger because it produces saliva and your stomach will rumble thinking you're going to swallow some food. Water is good so keep drinking that, but sipping as gulping it can give you cramps.0

publish your diary:)0

cold water drains out of your stomach faster so its good for hydrating you ... warm water stays in your stomach making you feel full longer ...
try fibre supplements ... but its my guess you are an emotional eater and somthing has got you down!0 -
What the others have said... You need to make public your diary so that others can help you out more on advice.0

Snacking. I snack throughout the day because I had that problem. I have my breakfast and then 2 hours later I have a small snack (fruit or baby carrots with hummus or almonds). Lunch, then like 2-3 snacks before dinner. I also try to drink 2 bottles of water in between my big meals. I use a mix to put in my water just because I can't stand plain water. Try it! Also, let us see your diary so we have a better idea of what you are already eating0

I had the same problem, so now I try to have a high protein breakfast, then tons of fruit and veggies through the day0

This. Chances are that you're not eating enough of the right things (protein and fiber) to keep you satisfied.
And try to distract yourself. Go for walks, pick up a hobby, stay busy somewhere that is not the kitchen (unless you can manage not to eat).0 -
Eat veggies! Alot of veggies and fruit, and protien.
when you hungry, pull some red peppers out, some hummus and bam! Snack is served! Make sure you weigh your hummus though0 -
When I started this journey of weight loss I was hungry all the time too... I way upped my protein...Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, protein shake etc... hope this helps0

A fitness trainer has said to drink warm or room temperature water to help you feel full and cold water helps you loose weight. Not sure if that is true or not or if it helps.0

Make sure you're getting enough fiber, protein, and healthy fats--helps fill you up and keep you satisfied longer. Also, if you eat back your exercise calories, that should help too. Good luck!0
-
I wouldn't have though gum would help at all....all that chewing might make your tummy think you're about to feed it when you're not...?0

At certain times of the month I'm like that. I find a chilli raw helps or just takes my mind off it, not sure which as I'm trying to put out the fire LOL! If that fails I have berries and natural yogurt, this seems to fill me up.0

You don't know how to fix it? How about eating enough to fuel your activity? I certainly hope you are eating more than 1200 a day while doing all those workouts.0 -

Burn more calories then you eat! That is how you lose weight
And veggies!!!!0 -
when I feel like this I have a piece of string cheese & some almonds or apple w/ peanut butter. Just eat something small that has protein. Its a snack not a meal!0

Without knowing what you are eating, I'd say increase the amount of fat in your diet. Fat is especially filling and takes longer to digest, making that full feeling last longer. And unlike the idiotic ideas perpetuated by the government in the last 30 years, dietary fat is not what causes obesity, and it has been unfairly vilified. That said, the type of fat is still important - it is healthier to use more plant based fats (like plant oils, nuts, avocado, etc) and less saturated fats (meat, cheese, and dairy).0
