Got my energy back, and I’m not starrving… what did I do different?

NOTHING!  At least nothing that I noticed.  I even ended up eating less today, and I so WANTED to work out!!  It has been such a “chore” to get on the tread mill.  But last night, I was craving a workout, so much so, that I walked an extra 15 minutes and did my weight training to follow, and I still didn’t want to stop, But I knew I didn’t want to over do it.  THEN, not once did my stomach growl or protest to me not immediately going down and eating so much as a carrot, infact, I had NO desire for food at all!  I took my shower, went down to the office and worked for an hour then stayed up till 3am watching movies.  And never got hungry!!  I feel so energized today, and anxious to workout again already ( and it’s not even noon yet), altho, I am getting hungry, so time to go figure out a sensible lunch!  Enjoy your weekend everyone!!

Why am I hungry all the time?

Im not sure why, but even after I eat, im still hungry.  I was hoping after 3 months of regulating my “diet”, eating healthy, my stomach and body would adjust.  I eat 3 meals and 3 snacks a day, but it doesn’t seem to be enough.   I have lost weight and I’m only 2 lbs from my goal, but all I think about is food, and snacks.  It’s driving me  crazy.  Then by evening I no longer have energy to work out ( I always workout in the evening).  I have to make myself excersise (its always been a ‘want to’, not a ‘have to’) just so I can fit another snack into my day and keep my calories in check.   All I know is my stomach is growling, I go to bed hungry.   I have been enjoying the journey and happy with making it a “lifestyle”  But I can’t do it, if I’m always hungry.   With my weight going down, so does my allowed caloric intake….Please help if you got any advise.
