OK, for a while now I've found myself with a problem that is preventing my attempts to start losing weight from getting going properly. Its my all emcompassing hunger.
I eat breakfast at about 8am, then go to work. Breakfast is a quite big bowl (Sometimes two) of cereal (i.e. two weetabix) with semi-skimmed milk, toast with margarine, and coffee.
Yet by 11am I am always hungry again, and need to eat an apple if I want to avoid the affects of quite strong hunger. This seems a little disturbing. In 3 hours I feel really hungry.
So I eat my lunch - typically 4 slices bread in the form of sandwiches, with meat, and maybe a yoghourt or crisps as dessert. Accompanied by a drink.
This lasts till 3pm. Now I'm hungry again. So I eat another apple.
This keeps me going till 6pm. Now I'm hungry AGAIN.
So I eat my tea - a main course, bread (unless the main course is very big or I have soup) and a cup of tea (I'm british after all).
By 9 pm I need something else to eat, so I have a bowl of cereal again usually. Otherwise I'm hungry when I try to sleep.
Now, can someone please explain why the h*** I am needing to eat so much? What changes to my lifestyle might help?
It seemed to start back when I reached the end of school (about 17 to 18 years old), when I found myself hungry at night and needed to eat a supper. But I used to go till one pm without eating and not get hungry. Its seriously annoying and also I can't feasibly try to cut down on unhealthy foods and become healthier when I am needing to eat all the time.
