I've been hungry ALL DAY

[slimmerkay]

There's something wrong with me today. I've been hungry all day long. I've eaten nearly every hour and nothing has filled me :cry:

Karen, you've read my bl**dy mid. I have been exactly the same. Its sooo disheartening isn't it. In the end I had a nap to take my mind off it.

Maybe its 'cos I so cold. Here's what I've had today up to now:-

half weetabix with ss milk
200ml ss milk with whey protein
bowl of pea & ham soup
low fat yoghurt (no bits)
plenty of water (approx 1litre)

I have days when I can eat a horse and days when I am just not hungry!

Have no idea what it depends on. One thing I noticed, that when I am ovulating I am really hungry and when my period actually comes I force myself to eat...

I have days that I feel hungry & think that I'm eating loads but compared to pre-op its not even close... I then find that the next day I don't feel hungry again & have to remind myself to eat!!

I've found the last week I'm having this every other day!

I think this is how 'normal' people eat, they listen to their bodies... I know that I've very rarely listened to my body before its always been my head!!

I'm really worried as I haven't once felt hungry yet.

I do doubt sometimes that it's a good thing as I often forget to eat. .

Today for example I had about 20g of cornflakes for breakfast. I then did the walking bus to pre-school and ended up staying at work till 3.30pm. On the school run I suddenly remembered I hadn't had lunch so had a fromage frais when I got in (a big weight watchers one!).

I've just had tea and brought that back up again.

Oh joy, today I've probably not even hit 100 calories. :cry:

I'm off out babysitting tonight so will take a bag of snack-a-jacks and another fromage frais.

Lucy that's unbelievable

Thanks to everyone. But my original point was not that I have eaten loads today but that what I have eaten has not filled me at all.

Anyway, had pasta for tea and now I'm over full so that served me right

I wish it was unbelievable.

I seem to feel full after 2 or 3 mouthfuls of what I'm eating. I can only manage half a piece of toast at a time and if it's something like cottage pie I'm full after 4-6 teaspoon fulls.

I was worried to start with that my pouch was too big and I could eat too much. Now I'm worried because it's WAY to small and I seriously doubt I'm getting enough in.

I'm not being quite so sick now, only seems to be one meal a day coming back!

Out of interest, how much pasta did you manage before you felt full?

I have that too... where I don't get filled up even tho I've eaten plenty, my restriction seems to leave me!!

You did make me laugh with yr serves me right comment! x

 

[slimmerkay]

Lucy I made 50g of pasta and ate most of it because my stupid head was telling me nothing had filled me all day so I needed all of it. I should have stopped at half really
