I’m currently 15 pounds down of my 20 pound weight loss goal, and for some reason the urge to eat constantly has re-emerged. I’ve been doing CICO with exercise daily, and when I first started losing the ability to not cheat was surprisingly easy. I would eat portion sizes of everything. I would weigh out desserts, have only a single cookie, weigh out snacks, everything. If I had cravings I would eat vegetables for the volume and be satisfied. The last week or 2 my urges to constantly be eating and feel over full are back full force and the scale shows it.
Today for example, I made a nice 400 calorie well balanced breakfast, then an hour or 2 later I felt hungry so for lunch I made a salad with chicken (roughly 250 calories). Then an hour later all I could think about was ice cream, so I finished a half full pint of cookies and cream... it’s now been another 2 hours and I can’t stop thinking “just eat a banana, have more yogurt, maybe some string cheese” and IM NOT EVEN HUNGRY!!
I don’t know what’s wrong with my brain lately. I hate constantly craving the act of eating. I drink a lot of water, I eat plenty of protein and fats.
Anyone else struggling with this? I’m not sure if it’s because I’m so close to my goal that I want to indulge more? I’m still not happy when I look in the mirror so you’d think that would be enough motivation...
Thanks for listening
