I feel a little hungrier now that i've started lifting weights. Is this normal? I started this past Tuesday...

    It could be your body's way of asking for more protein. Since, protein helps build muscle.

    Careful with lunch meats. They are super high in sodium. Take a look at the rest of your menu and see if you can budget in all that extra salt.
