Hungry all the time!

Drinking green tea sometimes used to help in my initial stages, eating protein rich food also good....your diary is not open so can't comment much..exercise , high intensity is also an appetite suppressant..

Hmmm. I try to put some form of protein in with all of my meals. Shrimp wraps, chicken salads, protein shakes, etc. Also, I make sure to get enough fiber every day (even though that's very difficult for me). I've found that using one of the generic tasteless fiber powders while I'm cooking dinner will help me stay full through to my bedtime, which varies quite drastically.

In summary. Protein and fiber!

I hope that helps!

What are your typical meals? Are you getting enough protein, are you getting enough water. Are you really hungry or are you bored, i struggled with boredum hunger for a long time, alwasy thinking I was hungry when in all seriousness, I was just bored and food seemed like a good idea. Spreading your meals out like that can be good and bad, (not a doctor, so take this for what it is my opinion). I read an article that talked about the negative effects of eating smaller meals more often. It stated about it being counter productive towards our bodies naturally ability to miss a meal. When you fuel your body all day, it eventually expects to be fed all day. I use to do 5 meals a day and then after reading that article i started paying attention to my body, and like clock work, at 6 I was hungery, at 9:30 i was hungry, at 12 I was hungry, at 2:30 i was hungry, at 6 i was hungry. And god forbid i would miss a meal, because then i got crabby and Super hungry. So I started increase my meals and only eating 3, and it really helped me not be hungry all the time. Hope that gives you something to think about, good luck.

Try doing this, it seems to work for me. Before you eat, ask yourself, am I really hungry? Is it possible that I'm bored, angry, sad, vengeful, or some other emotion? Food isn't the enemy, it's simply fuel.

Not trying to assign emotions to you, so please don't take offense. I was laid off in 2009, and experienced the worst weight gain of my life. A job is so much more than a paycheck! Working says to us that we're important, and needed... and it satisfies that need to be part of a team, or a tribe. Once that was gone, at least for me, I felt like there was a hole in me that needed to be filled. I filled it with food. After a while, I started giving myself time outs... and distracting myself with other things (I took up jewelry making). I found that keeping my hands busy, while not focusing on fitness or food (although exercise is good of course), helped tremendously.

Good luck on your journey, I hope everything improves for you soon.

A few things could help:

1. Drink lots of water, often your body may thinks its hungry when its just thirsty.
2. Increase your protein intake. This is why the dukan diet is the current crazy as the hgih protein diet means you fill really full so dont eat so much.
3. Maybe increase you calories and find the level where your not always hungry and then each week reduce it by 50-100kcal until your at a level where you are losing weight at the pace you want. This will help your body adapt and get use to the lower calorie intake making you less hungry,

It may also be worth trying to snack, it may just be the habit of eatting your missing. Carry fruit, carrot sticks etc around and nibble on them and see if that helps. I certainly prefer to have lots of snacks.

Hope this helps

I was having the same issue with feeling hungry all the time, but I discovered that it was when I wasn't getting enough fluids. I think I was confusing feeling hungry with being slightly dehydrated. I really have to make a conscious effort to drink more.

You're eating below your BMR, which I get at 1475. Add to that the 200 to 400 exercise calories, and you are burning between 1675 and 1875 per day. The deficit is not that big; the level of intake is just too low.

Many of the "solutions" above treat the symptoms without solving the basic problem that you're not taking in enough fuel for your body to run well. Water, green tea, lettuce, celery, and any other hack that makes you not feel hungry will still leave your body short on fuel.
