If you have protein powder, add it to the smoothie. The additional protein will help you fill up. Some plain yogurt would help too.0

bananas always make me hungry. try cereal and fat free milk0

All I really know what to say is drink as many liquids as you can sister!!!! You are new to the teens years so youre going to be more hungry than say me...whos sitting next to you right now!!! lol- because youre still growing.
But if its really bad theres no harm in making a banana smoothie because i know all you put in it is milk and a banana! and youre under your calorie intake anyway

It would help if you make your diary public...make sure you are getting enough protein and complex carbs (more specifically protein). If you are getting mainly carbs, then your body is burning it off too fast and you also have the issue w/ the 'sugar low' when your body comes off of the 'high' of the quick energy found in simple carbs0

Try coconut water. Pure coconut water. It helps your vitamins,and fills you up.0

I am sooo hungry too. I'm following my calorie allowance with about 50 over but I'm stil drinking water to try to fill my hungry belly.0

yeah, your only protein today was the 2 ounces of chicken...I bet if you add more protein you would end up feeling better and fuller for a longer period of time. I am a carbitarian, so I have the same problem.
edit--didn't notice the extra protein in the muffins and didn't know that broccoli had so much protein...I think you are still low on it. Plus, having the small amt of rice for lunch isn't filling enough to last you. Eat something a little more filling w/ your lunch so you don't feel deprived at dinner. you have 400 extra calories from exercising, so I would eat 200 calories of that as your smoothie (or all 400...you want to be a little hungry, but not feel like you are starving).0 -
i have been trying to get under 270 for over a year now every time i get at 270 i would have powerful cravings and eat and eat. i joined yesterday and learned that i was starving myself and when my body had enough of that it would fight back. now i track my calories. you may have something like this going on with your situation.
hope it helps0 -
Mind over matter!! Eat to live not live to eat!! You can do it I know you can!!0

You guys are funny.
Listen to your sister. If that's all you put in then there's no harm there. Apples work really well for me too when I get really hungry because they have fiber. The refrigerator was pretty pathetic before we went grocery shopping today. Its what basically save me. I was sooo hungry.0 -

Hi:0) You still have 400 cal you can eat. You can eat those, if you are already on a deficit. If I don't exercise, I eat 1200 cal. If I exercise, I eat some or all my exercise cal. so my body doesn't think it's going to starvation.0

You still have 400 cal. go for some healthy fats... avocado, nuts, Peanutbutter, Yes calorie dens, but doesn't take much to fill you up. And you get lots of lovely nutrients for your growing body!0

You're hungry because you haven't eaten enough food!
You are 400 cals under for the day. Eat something!0 -
Thank you!!!!(:0
