    I think some of this is probably just that you're getting used to eating less. Your body will protest, the usual advice of more protein, drink water, fill up on veggies and fibrous foods etc will help.

    I also wonder, if you're really very hungry, if it could be a logging issue. Are you weighing things? Are you entering them exactly or are you finding the nearest approximation in the list of foods and entering that? You can find quite a lot of inaccuracies in the foods that appear on the list when you search.


    I see from your profile that you've lost 1kg so far, was that steadily across the 2 weeks that you've been using MFP? If so, it sounds like you're eating exactly the right amount of calories, just maybe the wrong things.

    Ok I don't understand your diary either, but yeah, you have to do better choices... More veggies, more protein, good fats, less high calories carbs that leave you starving one hour later.
