I'm starved!

[PinkToaster]

I've had a Sunday roast at 2, lasagne and chips (all free) about an hour and a half ago and I feel completely starving still! My star week is due so I think that might be the culprit. Any suggestions on how to fill me up? I've left it 30 mins to see if it would pass but still hungry.

On a green day by the way.

OOO have a mug shot. Or some rice with veggies.

Im having a day like that today. Im on my first red day in agesss and coz of the lack of carbs i dont feel completely satified. Cant wait til EE again tomoro.

Hi, I was exactly the same last week when I was due on......constantly hungry. I was also on a green day and I found that it wasn't until I had some chicken from a HB I finally filled up. and when I was on a red day, I wasn't full till had some carbs. Do you have any HB's left could try that or some nuts.....I've changed to EE since as I can now see the sense of it.

Mug shot, savoury rice, eggs, jacket potato and beans, pasta in sauce, super noodles (free ones), fruit, tin spaghetti etc etc!! Not all at once though lol!

I find scrambed eggs a great snack on any day, but with beans on a green day will really fil you up! Or cottage cheese, chickpea dahl, quorn chicken pieces home made hummous.
One of my favourite snacks in front of the TV on a green day is a tin of green giant sweetcorn! Yum!

Did you know if you make a meal and liquidise it with about 150 mls of fluid it will stay in your stomach longer than if you ate it as a meal with a glass of water. So my motto is always have some homemade soup in the freezer for times like these xx

yes i saw that, was it on the 1 show? interesting.

It was on a programme my sister recorded for me some time ago. Brilliant scientific research with some valuable weight loss tips. I loved the bit of the over weight lady eating all her healthy food but enough for three people !!!

Sounds like me!!

Yes! I saw that programme too Rosie. Quite an eye opener if I remember rightly.

Soup really is filling. I always keep forgetting that, thinking it'll never fill me up. Then I make some veg or lentil soup and remember why soup rocks!

Sometimes I get The Hunger as well, similarly linked to my hormones! I like really satisfying things. A quick rice pudding is a winner for me. If you've got any HE-A milk left (or even if not, just use some syns...it's not a lot) Pudding rice, cooked with the milk, a grate of nutmeg and some splenda. Lush. Great bedtime food too.

Have you ever made a cous cous 'cake' using a muller light, eggs and sweetner? Some class it as 'food abuse' and non-legal on SW...but I find it a life saver at times of hunger when I just need to eat and eat and eat!
