No matter what I'm just hungry. It's me of those days where no matter what I eat or how much. I'm still hungry and it's only 1pm. Ahhhh

    Me too. I guess we're going to be doing a good workout later to compensate for the extra calories

    I've had a few of those this week, like I'm still hungry no matter what I eat. I did go over my calories a few days but tried to stick to healthy snacks. The best thing I made all week were baked cinnamon apples - they were glorious!

    Eating more protein and drinking water keeps me full!
    If you are still hungry try to snack on fresh fruits n veggies.

    Yes its just one of those things... Fruits, veggies not helping and not what I want. I want the bad stuff unfortunately. I had a yogurt. it helped. I'm not going to a Super Bowl party so there really isn't any excuse. I really want my pasta for dinner too. It's just I'm so darn hungry either way. I know once in a while is ok but still URGH

    Sometimes it's ok to let yourself indulge, no guilt, no shame, just enjoy whatever you want to eat today.

    I had one of those days last week, I actually ate 2 lunches at work. :D Looking back on it, it didn't do any damage at all.

    Feeling that! I blame the cold and being trapped inside. I am not a happy camper to be outside on teen temps.

    Right before ToM!. I never worried because I knew I'd NOT want to eat when it started. I never forced myself.

    I have those days every so often, too. I may be eating the exact same things as usual, and I'm hungry anyway!

    At the very least, I make sure I log everything. If I can, I'll go for a walk/run. But the most important piece is to log it all so I have the data.

    Sorry to hear you're having a hungry day. I hope you've managed to soothe the beast.

    Must be something in the air this week. Yesterday I had a Chipotle burrito bowl for lunch and as I finished I thought "you know what I could really go for right now? Another Chipotle burrito bowl!"

    Well OK I over did it today by 300 calories. Actually better than I thought but I did have ravioli I couldn't resist. I did not work out today either.. Back to it tomorrow.

    Meh, undereat by 100 calories for the next three days and you're golden. Or just eat normally. 300 calories is less than 10% of a pound.

    Yes I will and plan to run extra mile :wink:

    I get those. I just roll with them. In fact, I just ran through an entire week like that. I don't know what the problem was. It didnt result in any weight gain, so . .I'm just chalking it up to a sudden metabolism fluctuation. I get those sometimes.

    Like two weeks ago I had a day where I went over by like 1500 calories. If you get back on track tomorrow, it'll be no big deal :) Seriously don't worry about it :) You totally got this

    There are those weird days aren't there? It seems the more I eat the hungrier I get. Today is a day I had to choke down food to get somewhat close to goal.
