    Big glass of ice cold water and either fruit or a packet of oatmeal. Hot drinks such as coffee, tea and herbal tea help, too (and if you can stomach it - hot chicken broth helps curb the hunger so that you can make a smart and controlled food choice). It has to be something that is already measured out because when I get that hungry - I won't take the time to measure (why I don't keep nuts around - I will just eat handfuls and before you know it I have already eaten half a jar). I try to eat every 2-3 hours so that this doesn't happen - but sometimes things get in the way.

    When I'm super hungry I start off eating something like baby carrots and hummus. Then, after I'm not starving I will make myself a sandwich or some soup or something and eat normally for the rest of the day.

    I think by "starvation mode", OP means ravenously hungry and willing to eat everything in sight.

    On a serious note... if your super hungry and you want something that will make you really full, make and eat some of this..... its like eating cool whip..... but its protein......

    I only eat what Dr. Oz tells me because everything he says is true and not driven by how much he gets paid to promote something...

    Aborted fetus'... no one else is using 'em
    That's because the conservatives won't let them use them. Bon appetit.

    Yes, totally. Like, anything you eat now will just make you gain weight so, like, you totally should not eat anything. Ever.

    What if it's my TOM? Does that change anything?

    6 or 7 nuts? Seriously? If I'm really hungry, 6 or 7 nuts are only going to make me angry. Really hungry? How about 2lbs of chicken breast, pounded flat, packed with bacon and cheese, rolled up, floured, crisped in some EVOO and then baked. On top of that, let's put an entire 2 heads of broccoli and a glass of whole milk. That's satisfaction!

    I know a lot of this has been suggested already, but I'm trying to think of what's in my fridge right now, and what I've been snacking on:
    -Apple/banana/or celery with peanut butter
    -Greek yogurt
    -Cottage cheese
    -Oatmeal
    -Small fruit salad/or green salad, or just fruits and veggies
    -nuts
    -avocado
    -shrimp with cocktail sauce
    -I'm really into the craisins trail mix lately
    -finally-I made taco meat the other day and I have fixings for tacos so I can make one at a time when needed, although maybe this is more for lunchtime.

    Are there WomanTrolls? I would assume there are or the Troll species would be extinct, but I've never seen a WomanTroll :huh:

    I like to chew my own toenails when I get that hungry.

    Haha! You must be fairly flexible to contort yourself enough to get your mouth to your toes...

    I actually enjoy some of the methods Dr. Oz uses to describe some body chemistry etc...but alot of his advice, in my opinion is heavily driven by marketing.

    Weiner, sausage, or salami usually works. Or Spanish eggs.
