    I know how you feel(today, at least) I am sick...it's 3:30pm and I haven't had anything to eat. I know I should, but my throat hurts so bad that I can only get water and warm tea down.

    Maybe tomorrow I will feel a little better and you will feel a little hungrier! Let's hope =)

    *hugs* I do the same thing. All day I haven't been hungry and I've only eaten 300 calories. I know my dinner isn't going to be THAT huge, yikes.

    I try to at least hit 1200 calories. At least once a week I don't make it and I cut myself a break for that day.

    But I have to admit it's kind of a nice change from when I was eating everything in sight :blushing:

    I get very very hungry the week leading up to shark week, then during shark week my hunger is decreased to the point that i find it very hard to get in all my cals. Then my hunger kinda levels out again..I know that my appitite has been like this as long as i can remembe but i really took notice of it now that i am counting cals.

    As long as i dont go more then 100 under for more then 2days I just go with it espeially if I ate over the few days before, If my hunger isnt back by the 3rd day i found a treat that helps me. Toasted bread with peanut butter, honey and cocoa.yummy and has enough cals to help me reach my goal...

    Maybe its hormonal and you will notice a pattern too...???

    Some days I find myself low on calories to. I have increased my non fat milk intake.

    maybe try to eat healthy foods that are not bulkly filling, but are still calorie rich. if you're having a hard time with the turkey sanwich, maybe spread it out a bit more. have 2 or 3 oz of turkey and then later on have half a pita with some homemade hummus. things that are calorie-rich and healthy but that dont make you feel full all at once. another good one is apple slices with peanut butter.
