I feel so HUNGRY all the time

it is pretty normal to feel that way. Your body is used to getting more. Try drinking more; water, herbal teas, even diet drinks, in moderation. Often we are so used to eating when we feel "hungry" that we don't recognise that it is thirst we feel.
What caloric plan are you following, perhaps it is too low?
Even if it is the proper amount, allow your self, for the time being to have more fresh vegetables. These are much lower in calories, and many actually take more calories to digest, than the calories they add to your diet. Plus this way you are encouraging the good habit of eating healthy snacks, and not giving into "junk" foods.
Kepp at it, it does get easier, and in time you stomach will shrink. Then...you will be "complaining" you are too full...wouldn't that be something

How long have you been breastfeeding? I know it took me about two months for my body to get back on track after giving birth. If you are past that, realize that part of what you are feeling may be things moving back to where they're supposed to be. Your uterus will continue to contract & shift back up for some time and it left me with a rumbling tummy feeling. When you feel it, do crunches to get the abs into the game. It will help your core, and take your mind off the emptyness. 9-months is a long time to be "full" and then suddenly drop 15+ lbs! Keep it up, and kudos for breastfeeding!

Hi, with 2000 calories you should not feel hungry, even with breast feeding. I am curious to know what you eat in a day? Breakfast is a very important meal! You should have protein at every meal and if you are hungry eat some protein in your snack time as well. The protein helps with the hunger. IFor breakfast you could have oatmeal with skim milk or yogurt and a piece of toast and a fruit. If you make vegetable soup with Campbells chicken stock as a base it is low in calories and lots of non starchy vegetables are very low in calories but this will help fill you up. For lunch you can have 2 bowls of soup and a sandwich made with a protein like low calorie non fat chicken with very low calorie mayo and lettuce and tomatoe and cucumber on a healthy 9 grain bread. Keep your starch's to 80 calories a serving. you should have 3-4 fruits a day try to avoid bananas, as they are full of sugar. A mid morning shake made of crused ice, frozen berries, non fat yoguart, protin powder preferably chocolate or strawberry and water, all blended is filling and will stop the hunger. Afternoon snack have some cheese and apple, or almonds (only 8 a day). Supper, have a 3 oz. protein meat like fish, chicken etc. with lots of vegetables or / salad. Keep in mind you should have 3 proteins, 3 fruits, 2-3 starch's and 3-4 vegetables a day. If you can find Protidiet protein supplements, they have lots of choices for the snacks which give you your protein and low on calories. I hope this helps.

The hungry feeling will ease up......you are still getting your body used to eating less. You will adjust. I hit the 5 wk mark today, and there are still times that it is a definite conscious effort to NOT eat. Using this website to help with my weight loss has taught me that I was becoming quite a glutton!!! Not necessarily eating way too much, but I was constantly eating.

Hey, rglatthaar, that is good to hear. My husband thinks I am weird because I ALWAYs have to get up once or twice a night!

I always found the first week of starting to diet the hardest. For me I sip water constantly and try to keep busy to keep my mind off of it. Hang in there and it will get easier!
