Struggling to lose at least 100 lbs. Problem with staying motivated.
I have the same problem. I started a Weight Loss challenge in my area, which is great, but I really thought it would be a different kind of program. i'm so bummed that it's so product-based. I feel like I'm involved with one giant sales pitch.
At any rate, I have been doing great for breakfast and lunch but for dinner... it seems like it all catches up to me. I have been trying, too, so you're not alone.
dinner time is the worst for me. by the time dinner roles around i feel like im starving and i eat two bites and then im way to full. I tend to get head ackes right before dinner. and seem to last even after i eat.. but im sticking it out.. i dont have a lot of money to get the bars and nobody at my house is on slim fast so it gets hard to find a snack that i can have. the 100 cal snacks at the store do keep me from starving and dont put a huge hole in my pocket ether. lots of banans and yoget coverd rasens. so far so good for me. hope i can keep up the good work with little money. for dinner i go all out with the veggies and fill my plate up with them. and it seems to ok for now if i keep the hunger pains down till dinner i should be able to stick with it. i just started reading the forums and its good to see that im not the only one that is hungry when dinner roles around.
Hey, I'm usually starved and sometimes cranky by the time dinner comes around and what's really funny is that I used to be really picky and now you could throw almost anything at me around 6:00 pm and I'd eat it. I like to feel hungry. I've been going a long time without feeling hungry because of my snacking & nibbling habits so now I finally feel like food isn't controlling me. Good luck!
Raw Almonds and raisins are the only thing that saves me. If I eat them for my snack at 3:00 I am not raging hungry by dinner. I don't know if you have a place like Costco around you but if you know someone who belongs you can get a huge bag of the raw almonds for aroun $10 and they last a very long time.
