Hungry

I am in such a hungry stage - I can't stop eating. I've been down a couple of pounds - but I know they're just gonna fly back on me - because I just can't stop eating. Any suggestions??

    Yes, figure out why you're always hungry. Are you not eating enough solid proteins and fiber? Are you at too high of a calorie deficit? Are you sitting around staring at food that you've left in plain sight? Are you watching a lot of TV with commercials that flash scenes of delicious food in your face every 10 minutes?

    Agree with @ahamm002. First identify the source of the hunger and if it is in fact hunger. If it's not actual hunger and more about habit or boredom then it's simply mind over matter. Only YOU have the power to stop yourself.

    Do you log your food here? Are there any patterns you notice that might be contributing to this?

    I guess my first step is to get back to logging in my food. Today is Monday - so it's a good day to start. I do think boredom had something to do with my hunger - so I'm hoping work will get busier.

    Thanks ;)

    I took up crocheting to keep my hands busy while watching TV at night.
