Can someone please tell me why i'm always feeling so hungry!!! i'm 120 pounds, 5'6 and 19 years old. i eat a good 2200-2500 calories throughout the day but a couple of hours before bed.. im starving :/ there was a point i was only having 1000-1200 and i felt really sucky, but not as hungry as i do now. i'm doing more strength training- could that have anything to do with it?

    I know the feeling all too well!! Since you are doing so much strength training, adding more protein to your diet really helps.

    You don't have an open diary so it's hard to check, perhaps not enough protein in the morning? I find that if I'm eating over 100g lean protein a day I don't get hungry much even if my cals are a bit below maintenance.

    Could just be hormones related, it happens to me once a month for a few days.
