So I am having a hard time adjusting to this dieting business. I'm supposed to get between 1200-1600 calories daily to lose weight. I feel like I am freaking starving to death all the time. I hate this feeling. I still don't feel like I am eating a bunch of bad things, except for my cookie binge the other night. I just feel like I am waiting on the clock to hit midnight so I can eat something else. Looking at my tracker seems like I am eating a decent diet, but I can't figure out why I am so hungry. I wonder if it's because I am right after my period. I don't want to make excuses, but I am SO hungry. I don't want to be hungry, but I am tired of being fat too. You would think that a lot of vegetables would mean a lot of fiber and it is supposed to fill you up. I am not having that experience.
Yours truly,
Frustrated Fat Girl
It is tough, but it gets easier! Go to bed hungry! You wake up and you aren't as hungry anymore. Embrace the empty feeling, it is your friend.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds crazy but you may want to try a fast. It helps reset your stomach. If you try fasting, do not eat from the moment you get up. Once food crosses your lips it becomes impossible to keep going for the rest of the day. Just drink liquids all day and no food. Don't worry about going into starvation mode, humans can handle no food for a day without a problem, just like one binge day is not going to hurt you either. It's the overall patterns that hurt us.
