Hey all,
I started my weight loss journey (again) this past Monday and so far so good. I'm already almost five pounds down of what I'm assuming is water weight, but the scale is coming down so I'm happy! However today in particular my hunger has been insatiable. I honestly feel like I'm going to die even though that is melodramatic. Some info: SW: 248 CW: 243.3 24f TDEE: about 2000
I've lost some weight before. I managed to lose about 10 pounds back in 2018 over the course of a month. I remember the first two weeks or so being ravenously hungry and then being okay after that, but I honestly don't know if I can handle the two weeks of hunger this time. I'm trying to eat about 1500 calories a day so nothing too restrictive, but I just cannot get full. I tried to bulk out my diet today with some large cucumbers just to give myself something to snack on but I honestly could've just eaten air for all the satisfaction it gave me. My mom cooked me some spaghetti today so I thought "this is it! Finally a nice filling meal" and even though it's been 20 minutes since then I'm so hungry I could cry despite that being a 1000 calorie meal. I usually don't eat until afternoon and then I will eat something small like a few eggs or fruits and veggies to prepare for a larger dinner. I live with my mom and my girlfriend so I usually just eat what they do for dinner just meticulously measured out.
I know it will get better as my body adjusts to the calories I'm giving it but does anyone have any advice for the hunger I'm feeling now? I wasn't sure if I should be eating more throughout the day or if anyone else has experience with a small lunch followed by a large dinner. Any advice is greatly appreciated as this is usually my fall off the wagon stage. I'm feeling pretty determined this time, but it's still taking all my willpower to not eat the whole container of cheese dip I know is sitting in my fridge.
