So I’ve lost 23 lbs since October. F27, 5’5, SW173 CW150 GW145 (almost there!!). I’ve been doing spin class 3x per week and trying to either walk a 5k or swim a mile on the other 3 days per week with 1 rest day. My original calorie goal was ~1700 on days I exercise and 1400 on days I skip/rest. In the last month I’ve cut that down by 100 calories per day to try to quicken my rate of loss a bit.
Things have been going OK as far as the weight loss and I’m so excited I’m close to goal weight. I haven’t been all that hungry during weight loss to be honest. But yesterday I woke up RAVENOUS. I ate some oatmeal and was still starving at lunch so I ate a whole chipotle bowl (with guac!) then still hungry I had some Oreos and went to sit by the pool since the weather finally cleared up after a week of rain. I was too hungry to swim laps. I came home and had some tomato basil soup with sourdough bread. Still hungry. At this point I decided it was a f*ck it day and got some ice cream and rounded out the day with two rum and Cokes. Overall a 2300 calorie day with zero exercise. I figured I’d make it a lighter day today to compensate but nope. Woke up starving. It’s 1030am and I’m going to order a pizza.
Is this normal when you get closer to goal weight? Your body is just done dieting lol? My period is scheduled for tomorrow but I don’t usually have symptoms like this. Am I pregnant despite birth control? I could eat a whale.
I’m going to try to eat at maintenance today (maybe 2300 including exercise) and see how it goes but at this moment I feel like the hunger will never end. Thank you for reading lol
