Eating when hungry

[Sarah-Jayne]

Hi all!!!!!

Im on a green day today, and (as it's nearly star week) im peckish. But then it got me thinking, do you think ive eaten tooo much today?

Breakfast - 4 Quorn sausages and 1 sachet of oat so simple porridge.

Lunch - 2 alpen bars, 2 apples, 1 small sushi packet and a pouch of uncle bens rice.

Dinner - Boiled rice and 1/2 can of stagg chilli with added mushrooms, onions and mushrooms.

I will also probably have a small 90 calorie time out tonight too.

Now, honestly, do you think it's too much? I think it is but i'm constantly hungry today!

Thanks xx

i dont think its too much! i have my food diary on here if you want to peek and see that i eat similar amounts all the time!!!

relax thats the beauty of sw you can fulfill your hunger.

no i think thats fine ... if your hungry eat

although try and have a drink of water because sometimes we can get it mixed up and not actually be hungry infact we are just a bit thirsty ... well thats what my consultant says.

i think i eat alot but if i didnt i would be binging on bad stuff

Looks fine to me. Somedays I have hungry days where I just eat tonnes and tonnes, but then other days I'm not hungry at all. I think you're right to fill up if you're hungry- then the bad stuff won't call to you so much!

This post made me think. sometimes i am not hungry at all until around 11am. Now should i eat something in the morning, because "breakfast is very important" never mind that i am not remotely hungry, or should i wait until i feel hungry. (not starving, just peckish).

i have had 2 boiled eggs for breakfast today at around 7.30.
around 8.30 i had two small bananas.
i had a pink n white at 12.
i had a bowl of homemade veg soup at 1.30 and a tiny tangerine. and i feel full.

I don't think you've eaten too much. I'm often surprised how much I eat. Today it was two choc weetabix with raspberries & natural yoghurt, these were so yummy.

I've had two apples & 1 satsuma for snacks, another satsuma left for later. Lunch was rice salad followed by mullerlight yoghurt.

Tea will be leftovers & something will be made using, rice, carrots & swede, parsnips & cabbage.

I've still got an hexb which will be toast or alpen light.

What on earth is a pink and white!?

Those wafer biscuit things with pink and white marshmallow inside, a bit of a 'marmite' - I don't like them!

The thing that strikes me about that list is that there is hardly any protein at all.
